In this video, Dr. Sandra Kurtin, an expert on acute myeloid leukemia (AML), explains that the outlook or prognosis for someone with AML depends on the type they have. Some types of AML have a favorable outlook or prognosis, while other types, including treatment-related or secondary AML, have a poor outlook without a stem cell transplant. Younger people with AML usually have a better outlook than older people. Learning about your AML subtype and any genetic changes you have is very important for understanding your AML prognosis.
