Leukemia - a curable disease

What is cancer, what are the cancers of the blood?It is known that cancer is about the different types affect different organs and tissues of the body. Among these different types of so-called leukemia, which is a malignant disease that affects the cells making up the blood and in bone marrow, which in itself is not a single disease, but different types can be divided into four main sections differ in the means of treatment and also the amount of response to treatment and this What Snfsalh later. In addition, there lymphatic tumors, which could also be linked to cancers of the blood cells as the nodes and the lymph nodes and represents one unit of blood cells and bone marrow (the product of the blood). In turn, lymphomas are divided into different diseases and can be considered in a simple, consisting of three disease groups are satisfactory or Hodgkin's disease Hodgkin's disease, lymphoma non-Hodgkin's type of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, myeloma or multiple myeloma. Despite this division, we note differences between the biological and therapeutic minute different species, especially those that meet under the so-called lymphatic tumors of non-Hodgkin's type.

The cancer after diagnosis must determine the extent of its spread, and simplified deployment phases can be identified into three stages: the spread in the subject of evolution, the spread in the area of ​​evolution, the spread of the year. The cure for any cancerous disease is today the latest and essential means: heat therapy, radiation therapy, drug therapy (chemotherapy) has occurred during the past decades, significant progress has access to the full recovery of many types of cancer. And full recovery is in the case of certain types of cancer by surgical treatment primarily with radiation therapy or medication or both, and this applies to this species of cancer in the event of discovery is not yet in place outside the subject of evolution or less in the case of being limited within the evolution. In addition, there are many types of cancer can be cured of them also in the case of proliferation in general, at the forefront of these types of blood cancers or malignant tumors as these diseases can be considered are all mentioned in the event of the year, such as the spread of blood in the body.
General causes of cancer and cancer of the blood,We know today causes a specific cause tumors or no tumor miles only, but the first of these reasons do not explain all cases of Oncology, secondly in any case do not explain why the person Doe got his tumor. Usually ask patients and their relatives, why were they, or loved one to have a tumor do not care why people infect tumors. Therefore, it is difficult for doctors to answer the question of patients and their relatives, the degree to which cures Gleilhm. All we can say assertively that she wanted the will of God for this or that person to be infected tumor and leave aside the questions that are useless in the treatment of that person because they are not in any benefit it may bring in terms of damage raised to the feelings of guilt. Yes, there are certain conditions that we can benefit from the knowledge of the causes of tumors for the other people around the patient or others, for example when a person becomes a smoker for many years, tumor in the lung, we can say that the tumor may have been due to smoking and may benefit some smokers from the patient's relatives or other of these lesson and stay away from smoking. There is also a disease and certain genetic know it causes a tendency to the appearance of tumors was we now know a lot of genetic disorders that cause the tendency to the emergence of tumors to varying degrees, in the case of knowledge that we can examine the patient's relatives to find out the presence of gene genetic those or not, then take the necessary action to do so.

As well as we can yet know the reasons for the emergence of tumors by exposure to chemicals or other work to develop policies to protect workers exposed to these materials. As well as we can by entering the preventive vaccination of the virus of hepatitis B to reduce the number of people with liver cancer. But all these measures seek to reduce the appearance of tumors in the general population does not benefit a particular patient with a tumor, which usually wonder why this struck me as the tumor? This question is difficult to answer generally.
Reasons leading to the emergence of a tendency to tumors

    
Genetic disorders
    
It is known that there are imbalances and make the human genetic risk for the emergence of tumors most notably Down syndrome or the so-called Mongolian children and those children have the possibility to be infected with acute leukemia. There is also a number of genetic diseases known to the doctors that can lead to tumors of the blood.
    

    
Exposure to radiation
    
From the painful experience of the two nuclear bombs used by the Americans during World War II bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the effects of the Chernobyl reactor accident recently and Russian reports of depleted uranium used by the Americans in the Balkans and Iraq. Yes, the exposure to radiation causes tumors of blood in the years following the exposure to radiation. As well as the doses to doctors and technicians in the first rays of the twentieth century, much larger than the radiation doses to workers in diagnostic radiology now, so the probability of the risk of tumors of the blood of these workers more than others. There were also studies indicating that the dangers of the emergence of tumors of the blood than in children whose mothers were exposed during their pregnancy to radiation or who were born to parents working in nuclear reactors or near them.
    

    
Radiation therapy and chemotherapy
    
After the use of radiation therapy in the tens of thousands of patients during the twentieth century, and scientifically proven to note that studies of radiation therapy and chemotherapy as well as his own cause in some cases, tumors of blood that are unrelated to the original tumor, which was the use of radiation therapy or chemotherapy because of it. The doctors were in the past using radiation therapy for the treatment of some diseases, non-malignant diseases such as inflammation of the vertebrae are still some drugs, chemicals used in diseases of intractable non-malignant because it has an impact on the device spinal in the body and therefore stop doctors from the use of radiation therapy in many diseases, non-malignant . In any case, you must know that the danger of the emergence of tumors of blood this is a small risk, but it exists, but in any case that is used for chemotherapy or radiation on the benefits of the use of these two types of treatment is greater than the potential damage to a large extent. In spite of this it's always scientific studies to explore any chemical drugs, for example less dangerous than others in causing the emergence of tumors of the blood and also conducted studies to explore the techniques and methods which reduce the risk of radiation therapy in this regard.
    

    
Chemicals
    
One of the reasons that there are some blood diseases, including some cases of blood diseases malignant repeated exposure to chemicals at work, such as benzene, which is a substance other than gasoline used as fuel for cars, although the motor fuel also contains this article, this article uses as a solvent in the manufacture of paints and the tanning and medicine and dyeing, etc. .....

    
Exposure and this must be repeated over a long period, has developed industries in the second half of the twentieth century so that exposure to this material even if you use small, as well as the chemical plants to monitor the manufacturing process and monitor the health of workers to make sure there are no such risks.
    

    
Diseases of the blood leading to leukemia
    
There are diseases of non malignant blood can after years to become a disease of blood malignancy, such as aplastic anemia and disease break red blood cells nocturnal sudden and there is sick of blood malignant chronic turn into leukemia sharp after years such as the proliferation of blood cells, the real and cirrhosis of the bone marrow and leukemia chronic Whether myeloid or lymphoid.
    

    
Viruses
    
There are viruses cause tumors such as hepatitis C virus of type B, or EBV virus which causes tumors of the nasopharynx, has been found that this virus is a close relationship NHL-type Burkitt that appears in parts of Africa, as well as malignant lymphoma that appear after transplantation or when AIDS patients, and these are all cases where an imbalance in the immune cells of type T lymphocytes, and sometimes these tumors disappear after reducing the dose of immunosuppressive drugs in cases of post-transplant. There is also abbreviated name virus HTLV-1 causes disease in malignant blood ATLL and abbreviated name of the virus has spread its presence in parts of West Africa and the Caribbean and some parts of Japan.
Although our knowledge of these factors that may cause malignant tumors of blood, the vast majority of cases of malignant blood diseases do not find an explanation in these or other factors. As I said earlier patients (or their parents) want to usually find out why they were sick and do not know why people get sick, and this is what is difficult for doctors to answer.
