Interesting Facts About Acute Leukemia

[Guest guest]

Leukemia is also known as blood cancer. However, this term is a

misnomer because rather than causing cancer in the blood, the cancer

is caused in the bone marrow and it affects the white blood cells.

These cells are responsible for fighting infections, bacteria and

viruses that enter our body. Once the white blood cells are affected,

our body gets weakened and is exposed to infections.

 

There are several types of leukemia and the treatment varies depending

on the type. However, the two main types of leukemia are acute

leukemia and chronic leukemia. Chronic leukemia is considered to be

milder; in other words not all the white blood cells are defective and

the progress of the disease is much slower than acute leukemia.
