Abstract

Purpose: We reviewed the childhood lymphomas epidemiological data for the Mexico City metropolitan area (MCMA). Methods: Data analysis from children (0-14 years old) diagnosed with lymphoma during the period 1996-2010 was performed at the Mexican Childhood Cancer Registry. Histological subtype was determined according to the International Classification of Childhood Cancer 3 (ICCC-3). Age-adjusted incidence rates were calculated per 1,000,000 children/year by age, gender, and ICCC-3 subtype; trends, by average annual percent change (AAPC).© Cancer Causes & Control
