LEUKEMIA
Means “white blood”
WBC count soars to as high as 500,000-1 million/cubic mm
Form of cancer and usually proves fatal
The human T-cell leukemia - lymphoma virus -1 (HTLV-1) is strongly associated with leukemia
2 major types:
1. Myeloid - abnormal production of granulocytes by red bone marrow
2. Lymphoid - increased formation of lymphocytes in lymph nodes
Acute lymphoid leukemia is the most common cancerous condition in children
Greatest success in treating this form of leukemia
The type of leukocyte involved differentiates the varieties
Granulocytic, lymphocytic and monocytic
Leukemias are classified as acute or chronic
Acute - appears suddenly, progresses rapidly - death occurs in a few months – usually affect children
Chronic - begins more slowly - without treatment may live 3 years –seen more in elderly
WBCs are formed so rapidly in bone that immature RBCs and platelets are starved out
Leads to severe anemia and bleeding problems
One common cause of death is internal hemorrhaging, especially cerebral
WBCs plug blood vessels in brain, heart, lungs and kidney
Leukemic cells from bone marrow may invade other areas of bone weakening its structure and stimulating pain receptors
Leukemia cells are usually abnormal and often have little phagocytic ability
Most frequent cause death is uncontrolled infection due to lack of normal mature WBCs
Causes - radiation, benzene and other chemicals
Partial or complete remissions may be induced, some lasting as long as 15 years
