title: [Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia in adults].
abstract: Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is characterized by the association of myelodysplastic features and proliferation of both granulocytic and monocytic series. This disease frequently indolent, may however demonstrate progressive course and/or transform to acute leukemia.
