Abstract: In our environment, few studies have been conducted on pediatric hematologic cancers in relation to environmental risk factors. Thus, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of pediatric cancers in general and pediatric hematologic malignancies in particular, at the Lubumbashi University Clinics (CUL), and to establish possible association between these pathologies and exposure to environmental pollutants. The survey was exhaustive, conducted in two phases: first, a cross-sectional descriptive study of all cases of leukemia or lymphoma recorded in the CUL from 2012 to 2016, in children aged 1 to 17 years old at diagnosis; then, a case-control study on a selected part of cases.........
