The course of CLL varies from 1-2 years to 5-10 years or even 20 years. The duration of the disease is related to the severity of the disease, general symptoms, hepatosplenomegaly, hemogram and bone marrow changes. Acute leukemia is a dangerous disease. Without special treatment, the average survival time is only about 3 months. Infection and intracranial hemorrhage are the important causes of death in acute leukemia.

In recent years, due to the strengthening of various measures, the mortality caused by infection has been significantly reduced, and intracranial hemorrhage has become an important cause of acute leukemia death, especially early death. Leukemia patients and their families should know more about the treatment of leukemia, and communicate more with the attending doctors, which is helpful to prolong the survival of leukemia patients.

According to the latest statistics of the American leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS), there are 345000 leukemia patients in the United States. China is also a high incidence country of leukemia. The annual incidence rate is 3~4 of every 100 thousand people, and 40% of them are children. Their age is mainly from 2 to 9 years old. The huge population base has pushed up the number of leukemia patients in China. The incidence rate of leukemia is decreasing with age. The tumor (cancer) caused by epithelial cell mutation is increasing with age. Therefore, these tumors are relatively high in adult population, and rarely occur in children.
