How common is aml leukemia in a 23yo female?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Uncommon: AML is common in older people and ALL is most common in kids. Both are curable but ALL has better outcomes. But not all AML are same. Many subgroups of AML do very well. Your oncologist can answer this question. interesting fact--using the same exact chemotherapy regimens for the some cancers, adults treated by pediatric oncologists do better than when treated by adult oncologists.
