Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) is the most common type of leukemia in children. The symptoms such as excessive bruising (due to low platelet count), recurrent infections (due to low white blood cell count, especially functional neutrophils), and anemia (low red blood cell count) are characteristic of ALL. Acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) is more common in adults. Chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) has a more insidious onset and is also more common in adults. Hairy cell leukemia is a rare type of leukemia that mainly affects older adults.
