  1. aleukemic leukemia
    leukemia in which white blood cell count is normal or below normal
  2. leukemia
    malignant, progressive disease, marked by abnormal increase in leukocyte production and decrease in erythrocytes and platelets, causing anemia and vulnerability to infection and hemorrhage classified by: (1) acute or chronic type, (2) cell type involved (myeloid, lymphoid, or monocytic) and (3) increase or nonincrease of abnormal cells
  3. lymphatic leukemia
    leukemia combined with hyperplasia and overactivity of lymphoid tissue (lymphocitic leukemia, lymphoid leukemia)

  5. myeloblastic leukemia
