Abstract

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a rare disease in childhood. Long-term use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors has become the standard for the treatment of the chronic phase of CML. The article describes the case of development of CML in a child at the age of two years and raised the issue of the need for lifelong drug intake and the problems that arise in connection with this.
