A member asked:
I'm just wondering, if you do happen to have leukemia since it was passed down, at what age does it show?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Truly gentically: Associated (passed down) is rare. For example down's syndrome patients are at increased risk of aml. Rare pediatric genetic syndromes are associated with leukemia risk. Can you be more specific regarding your question.
