This week, we start a new series, this time all about the ins-and-outs of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) / small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL)! Whether practicing general internal medicine, hospital medicine, or hematology/oncology, you will likely come across a patient with CLL. First, we go through initial diagnosis of this disease! Content: - What is CLL? How is this different than SLL?- What is the approach to diagnosis?- Do you need a bone marrow biopsy? Imaging?- How do we prognosticate patients? - Are smudge cells always suggestive of CLL? ** Want to review the show notes for this episode and others?
