Pernicious anemia (also called Addison's anemia) is a type of red blood cell disorder caused by impaired vitamin B12 metabolism. Vitamin B12 is primarily absorbed by the small intestine, after being bound to intrinsic factor secreted by parietal cells of gastric mucosa. When this process is disrupted by conditions like atrophic gastritis, celiac disease, small bowel resection etc, B12 deficiency ensues.
Since chronic myeloid leukemia is associate with genetic mutation so there are no primary preventive measures available for chronic myelogenous leukemia.
However, prevention of radiation exposure can be associated with lesser events of transformation of chronic phase to accelerated phase.
