| West-Indian patients reached of grave diseases such that leukemia do not find donors compatible on the French and international files which do not have donors having their West-Indian tissue characteristics.
A West-Indian register of voluntary donors of osseous marrow is open in Martinique. Since 2001,130 people presented themselves to maintenance and 52 voluntary donors are already registered on the national register.
A call is launched to our community Antillo-Guianese to enrich this file quickly. One needs a very great number of potential donors to have all the West-Indian tissue characteristics and to hope to on standby find among the 700.000 domiens alive in Metropolis the donor compatible with the patient of Clerc's Office.
