“…According to CMML epidemiological statistics, almost 90% of cases occur in patients older than 60 years 4,35,50 . We reviewed the literatures on the age of CMML patients in Western (Germany, 29,30,51 France, 13,19,52 America, 8,11,12,15,17,20,25,26,28,40,53,54 Italy, 39,55 Greece, 14 and Denmark, 24 ) and Eastern countries (Japan 16,22,27 and China, 6,43,49,56â63 ), and the results showed that the median age of CMML patients in Eastern countries was younger (38â70 years vs. 44â73 years), and the median age of CMML patients undergoing alloâHSCT was similar in Eastern and Western countries (38â63 years vs. 44â64 years).
