Scope note: Leucemia crónica caracterizada por proliferación de linfocitos B anormales y con frecuencia linfadenopatías generalizadas. Cuando se presenta con afectación predominante en la sangre y médula ósea se denomina leucemia linfocítica crónica (LLC); cuando predominan las adenopatías se denomina linfoma de linfocitos pequeños. Estos términos representan el espectro de la misma enfermedad.

Scope note: A chronic leukemia characterized by abnormal B-lymphocytes and often generalized lymphadenopathy. In patients presenting predominately with blood and bone marrow involvement it is called chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL); in those predominately with enlarged lymph nodes it is called small lymphocytic lymphoma. These terms represent spectrums of the same disease.
