[Infectious complications in acute and chronic leukemias]. 1979

M Nedialkova, and B Georgieva

Clinical and microbiological examinations of patients with acute leucosis and chronic myelo- and lympholeucosis were carried out aiming at the elucidation of incidence, localization and causative agents of the infectious diseases along with them. The infectious complications were concluded to present a serious problem in the treatment of leucosis, due to which their diagnosis is of essential importance for their early diagnosis, timely treatment and prophylaxis.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007938	Leukemia	A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells.
