Epidemiology and Demographics
Acute promyelocytic leukemia represents 10-15%% of all cases of acute myeloid leukemia in adults.[1] The median age is approximately 40 years, which is considerably younger than the other subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (70 years). The incidence is increased in patients originated in Latin American countries.
