Precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia
MONDO:0020511The most frequent type of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Approximately 75% of cases occur in children under six years of age. This is a good prognosis leukemia. In the pediatric age group the complete remission rate is approximately 95% and the disease free survival rate is 70%. Approximately 80% of children appear to be cured. In the adult age group the complete remission rate is 60-85%. (WHO, 2001)
Also known as: B acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, B acute lymphoblastic leukemia, B cell acute lymphocytic leukaemia, B cell acute lymphocytic leukemia, B-ALL, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, B-cell acute lymphocytic leukaemia
