Almost all childhood leukemias are acute, but the disease is some times of the "chronic" type. In chronic leukemia, the bone marrow is able to produce a good number of normal cells as well as leukemic cells so that, compared to acute leukemia, the actual disease course is milder for a period of time. Even without treatment, the disease usually progresses more slowly. (references) | ||
