⭕ common finding in clinical exam

Difference between acute and chronic leukemia

Acute Leukemia
1. Sudden onset, severe symptoms
2. Immature cells (blasts) in bone marrow and blood
3. Rapid progression
4. Aggressive treatment (chemo, radiation, transplant)
5. Poor prognosis if untreated
6. Types: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Chronic Leukemia
1. Gradual onset, mild symptoms
2. Mature cells in bone marrow and blood
3. Slower progression
4. Targeted therapies (e.g., tyrosine kinase inhibitors)
5. Better prognosis than acute leukemia
6. Types: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)
