Are CLL and SLL treated the same?

Treatment for SLL and CLL is identical. However, there may be some differences depending on several factors, such as: a person's age. their overall health.

What does SLL stand for in oncology?

Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) is a cancer that affects a type of white blood cell called a "lymphocyte," which helps your body fight infection.

What type of lymphoma is SLL?

SLL is an indolent (slow growing) non-Hodgkin lymphoma that affects B cells. B cells (also known as B lymphocytes) are specialised white blood cells. Under normal conditions they produce immunoglobulins (also called antibodies) that help protect our bodies against infection and disease.

Is SLL worse than CLL?

In fact, CLL and SLL are really the same disease. Sometimes patients with SLL can develop a rising white blood cell count in the blood (or leukemia), and patients with CLL invariably have CLL cells also in the lymph nodes. In addition, most cases of SLL become CLL over time.

Abstractor Notes

Code 9823/3 is used for CLL, SLL, and CLL/SLL. CLL and SLL are no longer coded separately because it is almost impossible to differentiate between the two diseases. See the hematopoietic PH rules for information on coding primary site for CLL/SLL.

Diagnostic Confirmation

This histology can be determined by positive histology (including peripheral blood) with or without genetics and/or immunophenotyping. Review the Definitive Diagnostic Methods, Immunophenotyping and Genetics Data sections below, and the instructions in the Hematopoietic Manual for further guidance on assigning Diagnostic confirmation.

Definition

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia /small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) is a neoplasm composed of monomorphic small mature B cell s that coexpress CD5 and CD23. There must be a monoclonal B-cell count greater than or equal to 5 x 10 (to the ninth (9th))/L, with the characteristic morphology and phenotype of CLL, in the peripheral blood.
