Population-based data on survival from childhood cancers in sub-Saharan Africa are sparse. We report data on 221 children with cancer diagnosed between 2010 and 2014 in the population of Kampala, Uganda. Survival for eight of nine children with cancer assessed was below the WHO's global target of 60% (the exception was Hodgkin lymphoma: 86% at 3 years). There was significant (P < .05) decline in survival between 1 and 3 years for Wilms tumour and Kaposi sarcoma (30% and 34% at 3 years, respectively). Survival from Burkitt lymphoma, Wilms tumour and Kaposi sarcoma has not changed compared with results from the 2005-2009 study.
撒哈拉以南非洲地区儿童癌症生存的基于人群的数据十分匮乏。我们报告了在乌干达坎帕拉的人群中,221 名在 2010 至 2014 年间被诊断患有癌症的儿童的数据。对其中 9 名癌症患儿的评估显示,有 8 人的生存率低于世卫组织设定的 60%的全球目标(唯一的例外是霍奇金淋巴瘤:3 年时为 86%)。在 1 至 3 岁期间,Wilms 肿瘤和卡波西肉瘤的生存率显著下降(分别为 30%和 34%)。与 2005-2009 年的研究结果相比,Burkitt 淋巴瘤、Wilms 肿瘤和卡波西肉瘤的生存率没有变化。
