Leukemia (click for worldwide facilities list): Leukemia is cancer of your body's blood-forming tissues, including your bone marrow and lymphatic system. It usually starts in your white blood cells causing large numbers of blood cells to be produced and enter the bloodstream.
Leukemia isn't just a children's disease. It has four main types and many subtypes and only some are common among children.
Doctors often find chronic leukemia in a routine blood test, before symptoms begin. If you have signs or symptoms that suggest leukemia, you may undergo the following diagnostic exams: physical exam, blood tests, immunophenotyping, cytogenetic analysis, and a bone marrow sample.
You'll need additional tests to confirm the diagnosis and to determine the type of leukemia and its extent in your body. Certain types of leukemia are classified into stages, indicating the severity of the disease. Staging helps your doctor determine a treatment plan.
Unlike other types of cancer, leukemia isn't a solid tumor that your doctor can surgically remove. Leukemia treatment is complex. It depends on many factors, including your age and overall health, the type of leukemia you have and whether it has spread to other parts of your body.
Therapies used to fight leukemia include:
chemotherapy, biological therapy, Kinase inhibitors, other drug therapy, radiation therapy, stem cell transplant, and bone marrow transplant.
Clinical trials. Some people with leukemia choose to enroll in clinical trials to try out experimental treatments or new combinations of known therapies.
Supportive care. No matter what kind of cancer therapy you choose, you'll likely need medications to control pain and side effects.
