Features: With the rapid development of modern Chinese medical science and technology, significant progress has been made in the treatment of leukemia, especially through in-depth research on traditional Chinese medicine. This has made long-term disease-free survival or cure possible for most cases of certain types of acute leukemia, making it feasible to establish standardized comprehensive treatment protocols. Therefore, this book is compiled based on more than 20 years of clinical case data and laboratory research findings from Dalian Northern Traditional Chinese Medicine Hematology Hospital, supplemented by newly published literature reports from scholars at home and abroad. It primarily focuses on clinical efficacy. Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL) is a special type of acute leukemia with clinical characteristics of high susceptibility to infection, bleeding, and disseminated intravascular coagulation, resulting in a high mortality rate. This book mainly emphasizes clinical efficacy, aiming to establish standardized treatment protocols for the long-term disease-free survival or cure of APL patients, and to provide references for further promoting in-depth research on acute promyelocytic leukemia and acute lymphocytic leukemia.
