How long can a person generally live with leukemia?

The survival time of leukemia patients varies from individual to individual and cannot be generalized. Generally speaking, leukemia is divided into two major categories: acute leukemia and chronic leukemia. 1. Acute leukemia: Without specific treatment, the average survival period may be only about 3 months. However, with timely and effective treatment, such as chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation, some patients can survive for a long time, even achieving clinical remission. 2. Chronic leukemia: The disease course is relatively longer, and some patients can survive for several years or even decades. Through long-term medication and regular follow-up, the disease can be effectively controlled, and the quality of life can be improved. In addition, factors such as the patient's age, physical condition, severity of the disease, treatment plan, and response to treatment can also affect survival time.
