Leukemia in adults
In recent decades, an increase in the incidence of leukemia has been noted throughout the world. By 1960, the mortality rate in different countries ranged from 0.7 to 8.4 per 100 thousand population. In the northern regions, leukemia occurs somewhat more often than in the southern. In the 1930s, according to the Moscow prosecutors' data, leukemic processes were detected in 0.25% of the total number of autopsies, in 1960 they reached 3.16% [2]. By the same period, the number of patients with leukemia in therapeutic hospitals was 2.2%.
