Prognosis for Chronic Neutrophilic Leukemia: The prognosis is considered poor with patients surviving between half a year and six years after diagnosis. The poor prognosis is exacerbated by the fact that this form of leukemia tends to occur in older people who may have underlying heart, lung or blood vessel diseases. Being a rare condition, there is limited information on the prognosis of the condition but roughly a third of patients are still alive 5 years after diagnosis.
