| Résumé | Objective. - Epidemiologic data regarding home enteral nutrition (HEN) in children are scarce. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and prevalence of HEN in children in France. Methods. - The total number of children < 15 years on HEN, and the number of new children who started HEN in 2012 were extracted from the French health insurance database. Data from ten French regions, totalling 4.96 millions children < 15 years (41% total French population < 15 years), were obtained. Results. - The overall incidence and prevalence of HEN in children < 15 years were respectively 11.4 and 46.6 per 100,000 inhabitants per year. Main indications of HEN were neurological disorders (37%) and organ failure (20%). Conclusion. - This is the first study reporting exhaustive epidemiologic data on HEN in children in France. The projection of this data to the total French population leads to an estimate of 6,000 children < 15 years on HEN per year in France.
