The subject of study was the population affected by the Chernobyl accident, (1-4 groups of primary registration). We studied cases of hematologic malignancies (ICD-10: C90-96) for the period 1986-2012. The standardized ratios of their incidence were calculated and analyzed. The analysis of the indices of the incidence ratios revealed a significantly higher risk of development of multiple myeloma and malignant plasma cell neoplasms, lymphoid leukemia and myeloid leukemia (in men) in the group of the liquidators. The fourth group of primary registration had a significantly higher risk for development of lymphocytic leukemia and myeloid leukemia (in men).
