Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4

Abstract

Acute Leukemias are a heterogenous group of neoplasms arising from the malignant transformation of white blood cells or their precursors. Hospitalised patients diagnosed with acute leukemia were examined to study their clinical profile. A total of 100 patients diagnosed as acute leukemia (FAB classification) on bone marrow aspiration over a period of two and a half years were evaluated. ALL(52%) was more common than AML(48%) and males(66%) were affected more than females(34%). Pallor(89%) was the most common clinical presentation followed by generalized weakness(81%), fever(78%) and bony tenderness(60%) amongst others.
