"To determine the major presenting features of the most frequent leukemias and to describe the period from the first symptoms to the final diagnosis, we analyzed the records of 1,004 consecutive patients with acute (AL) and chronic (CL) leukemias diagnosed between 2004 and 2009. In 24% of AL and 63% of CL, the diagnosis was made incidentally. In contrast to the frequency of the symptoms, their spectrum did not differ from historical studies, and fatigue and weakness were the most frequent symptoms observed [with the exception of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) where bleeding predominated]. More profound cytopenia was found in AL compared to CL. The median time from the first symptoms to final diagnosis was 3 weeks in AL and 4 weeks in CL. APL had the shortest time to a definitive diagnosis (2 weeks); however, a very short duration of symptoms was also observed in CML (3 weeks). This study is the largest series reported to date on symptoms in leukemia patients at the time of diagnosis"@en . . "Timilsina, S." . "4"^^ . "To\u0161kov\u00E1, M." .
