Leukemia vs Lymphoma. Leukemia and lymphoma are malignancies (cancers). Leukemia is a cancer that occurs in white blood cell precursors. It can be acute cancer (acute leukemia) or chronic cancer. Based on the cell type they arise it can be divided in to myeloid leukemia or lymphoblastic leukemia.
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) are cancers that affect the same lymphocytes. CLL and SLL are essentially the same disease, with the only difference being the location where the cancer primarily occurs. When most of the cancer cells are located in the bloodstream and the bone marrow, the disease is referred to as CLL, although the lymph nodes and spleen are often involved. When the cancer cells are located mostly in the lymph nodes, the disease is called SLL.
