The Martinique Cancer Registry is a population-based registry created in 1981, run as unit UF1441 of the Pôle de Cancérologie Hématologie Urologie Pathologie of the CHU de Martinique in Fort-de-France. Its 2019 profile in BMC Cancer reports 22,801 new cancers diagnosed from 2001 to 2015 and 1,631 a year in 2011 to 2015, with world-standardised incidence of 289.8 per 100,000 men and 171.0 per 100,000 women, and higher incidence of prostate and stomach cancer than in mainland France. It is a general registry of the Francim network and, with the Guadeloupe and La Réunion registries, collected the data for the survival study published in February 2024, which says more than 1,500 new invasive cancers are registered each year in Martinique. The coordinates are the point for the CHU de Martinique, the registry's host.
