Which is more serious, acute leukemia or chronic leukemia

Clinically, there is no such thing as acute leukemia or chronic leukemia as serious. Acute leukemia and chronic leukemia are both hematologic malignant neoplastic diseases.

1. Acute leukemia: It is a malignant clonal proliferative disease of hematopoietic stem cells, which is mainly manifested by the infiltration of a large number of blasts in the bone marrow into the liver, spleen, lymph nodes and other tissues and organs, and inhibits normal hematopoietic function, and the clinical manifestations include anemia, bleeding tendency and infection. Patients need to be treated with drugs such as hydroxyurea tablets, cyclophosphamide for injection, and if necessary, surgical treatment such as allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

2. Chronic leukemia: It is a group of malignant neoplastic diseases originating from bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells, including chronic myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and eosinophilic leukemia. Since the pathogenesis of the disease is not clear, it may be related to ionizing radiation, chemical factors, etc. Patients may experience symptoms such as fatigue, low-grade fever, night sweats, and weight loss. Radiotherapy can be used to relieve symptoms in mild cases, while chemotherapy or targeted therapy may be needed to improve patients with more severe disease.

It is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time and choose the appropriate treatment according to their own conditions under the guidance of the doctor. In daily life, it is necessary to pay attention to rest and avoid overwork, and at the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to maintaining a good attitude and avoiding emotional excitement.
