Thoracic Complications in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (Thoracic Diseases in CLL)
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is the most common adult leukemia. Patients with CLL often present with pulmonary symptoms and diagnoses. We performed a retrospective, single center, chart review evaluating all patients with CLL admitted with a thoracic symptom or diagnosis. Although pneumonia is frequent, there are an increasing number of non-infectious complications, which often require lower respiratory tract sampling.
