Abstract:
Retrospective analysis of the results of treatment chronic myeloid (CML) leukemia in 80 children was done. From among 72 children treated by conventional methods the probability of 10 years survival had 17%. Statistically significant better results was obtained in the group of children with adult than juvenile type of CML (23 and 8%). Allogenic bone marrow transplantation was performed in six children, two children were treated with interferon. New approaches of treatment may offer the better chance for constitution of normal bone marrow function.
