Studies shows that male are more prone to chronic leukemia than females and leukemia mostly affect children below age 15 and adults that are above 55 years. However, They are rarely seen among childrens unlike adults above 55 years.

Generally, blood cancer (leukemia) are classified into two classes, these are chronic leukemia and acute leukemia. Leukemia can be classified into two classes, these are lymphocytic and myelogenous.

Chronic leukemia is a type of cancer that gets worse over time and keeps coming back. It's also known as chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), smoldering leukemia, and CML. About 25,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with chronic leukemia each year. Chronic leukemia isn't the same thing as acute leukemia. Chronic leukemia is a slowly progressing cancer of the blood or bone marrow. It develops over many years and progresses slowly, unlike acute or blast phase chronic myelogenous leukemia which develops quickly. The Body produces too many abnormal white blood cells. These abnormal cells are known as leukemic cells. One type of chronic leukemia, known as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, causes the body's immune system cells to accumulate at a fast rate.
