According to ATL registration for 9 years from 1982 to 1990, there were 329 cases of ATL patients with a mean of 37 cases per year. If this number corresponds to 60-70% of patients, about 60 cases in all will develop in Okinawa. The acute type amounted to 142 cases, lymphoma type 42 cases, chronic type 66 cases, smoldering type 72 cases and unknown 7 cases. The acute type represented the overwhelming majority of cases. In relation to disease type and age at diagnosis, the developmental peak of the acute type and lymphoma type were in the 50-year-old age group, while the chronic type and smoldering type were in the 60-year-old age group. These 4 types seemed to be independent of developing ATL., 論文}, pages = {149--154}, title = {[原著]HTLV-I endemic area 沖縄における成人T細胞白血病 (ATL)の発症状況}, volume = {18}, year = {1998} }
