Leukemias (or leukemias - U.S. spelling) are cancers of the white blood cells, which begin in the bone marrow.

Leukemias are grouped in two ways: the type of white blood cell affected - lymphoid or myeloid; and how quickly the disease develops and gets worse. Acute leukemia appears suddenly and grows quickly while chronic leukemia appears gradually and develops slowly over months to years.

This information refers to four types of leukemia; acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).

It is estimated that more than 5,200 people were diagnosed with leukemia in 2023. The average age at diagnosis is 65 years old.

Lymphomas refers to types of cancer that begin in the lymphatic system (the various lymph glands around the body) when abnormal white blood cells grow. Lymphomas are the sixth most common form of cancer overall (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer).

There are two main types of lymphoma, which spread and are treated differently:

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (which accounts for about 90% of lymphomas)
Hodgkin lymphoma (which has a characteristic appearance in biopsies).
There are around 40 subtypes of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and they vary in how fast they grow and spread, and how sick people feel. They are not all treated the same.

The incidence of lymphomas in Australia has risen over the past 20 years and is continuing to rise. Multiple studies have found no clear reason for the increase. Compared with a number of preventable cancers, there is only a weak association between lymphoma and known risk factors (see following). So, while a healthy lifestyle helps reduce your overall cancer risk, most individual cases of lymphoma cannot be attributed to any specific cause. Research continues.

It is estimated that more than 7,400 people were diagnosed with lymphoma in 2023. The average age at diagnosis is 65 years old.
