Significant advances have now been made in the treatment of acute lymphoid leukemia. The cure rate is between 80% and 90%, although in some of these cases the disease recurs.
Acute lymphoid leukemia is a complex disease that groups together a set of related diseases. Those affected have different subtypes of it and, therefore, the prognosis may be different for each of them.
Acute lymphoid leukemia is a type of cancer that begins in the bone marrow and can appear at any age. Its incidence in children and adults is low, just over 1 in every 100,000 cases. Despite this, it is the most common type of cancer in those under 20 years of age.
It is defined as a cancer of hematological cells, in which there is a predominance of immature cells that are precursors of lymphocytes. It occurs when lymphoblasts become malignant, leading to large numbers of immature lymphocytes.
