Is leukemia curable?
There are certain types of leukemia with a very good prognosis. For example, many children diagnosed with acute leukemia are cured of their disease. However, in adults the disease has a higher risk and treatment with chemotherapy tends to be very aggressive. Myeloblastic leukemia may need chemotherapy, transfusions, and antibiotics. Promyelocytic leukemia has a higher recuperation rate, but it also has a higher recurrence of the disease 3 years after treatment.
