Monocytic leukemia is a type of myeloid leukemia characterized by a dominance of monocytes in the marrow.

Like myeloid leukemia, monocytic leukemia is almost always broken down into "acute" and "chronic":

Acute monocytic leukemia is far more commonly referenced than the chronic variety. However, the chronic variety is a valid diagnostic entry.[1][2]
