We present the statistical properties of large scale galaxy distribution in the LEDA redshift database .
This catalog contains more than 40,000 redshifts over all the sky .
We find that LEDA , although seriously affected by incompleteness , shows quite stable statistical properties .
In particular , we have considered the behaviour of the two points correlation function and of the power spectrum of the density fluctuations , and we have done several tests to check whether the incompleteness of the catalog affect these statistical quantities .
Our conclusion is that galaxy distribution in this catalog has fractal properties up to the distance \sim 200 h ^ { -1 } { Mpc } with D = 2.1 \pm 0.2 , with no sign towards homogeneity : this result is statistically stable .
We analyze also the properties of the angular distributions , finding a complete agreement with the results obtained in redshift space .
Finally , we compare these results with those obtained in other redshift surveys , finding that this sample well reproduces the properties of galaxy distribution found in the different catalogs .
