Overview
The incidence of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) was estimated to be 1–2 cases per 100,000 individuals worldwide. The peak age for the disease is 50 to 55. incidence in CML increases by age, at least up to 75–80 years. In children, CML is a very rare disease with an incidence of 0.6–1.2 million children/year. CML is more common in males than in females with male-to-female ratio varying between 1.2 and 1.7 in different studies. The gender difference in incidence is less prominent in younger age groups. myelogenous leukemia accounts for 15% of adult leukemias. although some series report a median age of up to 67 years.
