Abstract
Objective: To study the incidence rates of acute lymphoblastic and myeloblastic leukaemia in the age category of children under 5 years. Methods: For the period 2006-2016 were registered 175 cases of acute leucosis in the age category under 5 years in Kyrgyzstan. In 144 cases (82.9%) there was acute lymphoblastic and in 30 cases (17.1%) acute myeloblastic leukaemia. Results: The incidence rates in the age group from one to 5 years, in both groups had higher rates compared to the age of up to 1 year. For boys under 1 year the incidence was 12.14 and at the age of 1 to 5 years – 30.76 per 1 million population, for girls these figures were equal to 7.89 and 17.76 respectively. In contrast to the incidence of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, morbidity of the incidence of acute myeloblastic leukaemia in rural areas turned out to be more than inhabitants of the city, amounting to 5.47 and 2.88 per million people, respectively. Conclusion: The incidence of acute leukaemia in the age category under 1 year is low. The highest incidence rates are registered in the age category from one to 5 years. The incidence of acute leukaemia in boys was higher than that of girls. Keywords: Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, acute myeloblastic leukaemia, infant leukaemia, standardized incidence rate.
