Materials & methods: The study was based on a modified Delphi approach. A questionnaire including the major potential obstacles was circulated twice among 13 hematologists. Results: The obstacles in AL management were limited access to the novel treatments and genetic tests, limited bed capacity, insufficient level of knowledge among allied health personnel, limited availability of psycho-oncological support and low levels of awareness in the population about the importance of stem cell donation. Conclusion: The challenges in the management of AL are critical to guide the efforts to improve the quality of healthcare delivery and the evidence-based decision making at treatment of AL patients.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessacute leukemiaacute lymphoblastic leukemiaacute myeloid leukemiaDelphimanagementUnmet clinical needs and challenges in the management of acute leukemia in Turkey: a modified Delphi studyArticle19149759823729376610.2217/fon-2022-09842-s2.0-85164039998Q1WOS:001002749000001Q2
