Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) Overview

Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) is a fast-growing cancer of the blood and bone marrow, characterized by the overproduction of immature white blood cells known as lymphoblasts.

Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) Overview

 

These abnormal cells crowd out healthy blood-forming cells, leading to symptoms such as:

  • Fatigue

  • Frequent infections

  • Easy bruising or bleeding

  • Pale complexion

Although ALL primarily affects children, it can also develop in adults.
The exact cause of ALL remains unclear, but risk factors include genetic predisposition, previous cancer treatments, and radiation exposure.

Treatment typically begins with chemotherapy and may also involve targeted therapy or stem cell transplantation, aiming for remission. Thanks to advances, especially in pediatric care, ALL has become one of the most curable types of leukemia when detected and treated early.
