Abstract: Cancer constitutes a substantial global health challenge, which is poised to intensify primarily due to the growing elderly population globally. Leukemia, being a type of hematological cancer, presents unique diagnostic complexities compared to solid cancers, contributing to elevated levels of morbidity and mortality across various regions worldwide, resulting in a substantial clinical burden. Employing data sourced from the WHO Global Health Expenditure Database and the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) Global Burden of Disease for the year 2019, this study undertakes an analysis of the prevalence, Years of Life Lost (YLLs), Years Lived with Disability (YLDs), Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs), and healthcare expenditure in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations in comparison to the global figures.
