Abstract

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) are amongst the commonest forms of leukemia seen in adult population which have different lineage of origin. They have rarely been reported to be diagnosed simultaneously in one patient. Here we report a rare case where both CML and CLL were diagnosed concurrently and discuss management of this rare clinical scenario.

Keywords: Chronic myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, bone marrow, cytogenetic analysis
