The first recognized cases of leukemia were reported in the mid-19th century, with Dr. Rudolf Virchow describing the disease in 1845. He identified it as a form of blood cancer characterized by an increase in white blood cells. The term "leukemia" itself was coined in 1847 by pathologist Karl Wilhelm von Nägeli, further solidifying its recognition in medical literature.
