Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) from Benzene Exposure

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is also known as chronic myelogenous leukemia. It is a type of cancer that starts in blood-forming cells of the bone marrow. It then invades the blood and can then spread to the lymph nodes, the spleen, liver, and other parts of the body. In contrast, other types of cancer can start in these organs and then spread to the bone marrow (or elsewhere). Those cancers are not leukemia. CML can also change into a fast-growing acute leukemia that invades almost any organ in the body.

Leukemia is a complex disease with many different types and sub-types. The kind of treatment given and the outlook for the person with leukemia vary greatly according to the exact type and other factors.
