Leukemia

Leukemia is a cancer of white blood cells, which are also called leukocytes or white blood cells. Leukemia causes a large number of white blood cells produced in the bone marrow, and these cells are filled and broke the bone in the blood. They can not react as regular white blood cells do, and therefore are not useful in protecting the body against disease because they are irregular and defective. There is no known cause at this time for leukemia, but children with genetic disorders, including neurofibromatosis have an increased risk of developing leukemia because of the drugs used to suppress the immune system after transplantation.

Hodgkin’s lymphoma

Hodgkin’s lymphoma a cancer that affects the lymph system, part of the immune system. This system includes the bone marrow, thymus, spleen and lymph nodes. Any cancer that originates in the lymphatic system is called lymphoma. There is no known cause for this cancer, but evidence of infection may play a role in development.

The symptoms

anemia or a low number of red blood cells is normally one of the first symptoms of leukemia in blood tests and an unusually high white blood cell count. Fevers and recurrent infections are common in children with leukemia, because white blood cells is defective. Easy bruising or bleeding, and pain in joints and bones, swollen glands in the neck or groin, unusual tiredness and lack of appetite are common symptoms which should be followed up with a doctor. Hodgkin symptoms include swelling of a gland or pain that lasts for weeks. Usually the gland is striking first in the neck or armpit. Higher than normal temperature, night sweats and weight loss and severe itching are common symptoms.

When should see a doctor?

If a child has had to take medications that suppress the immune system due to another disorder or disease lymphoma or leukemia, and the CBC shows higher than normal white blood cells or lower than normal red blood cells, the doctor should be sought. Blood samples showing abnormal blood cells are seen in patients with leukemia, so if this test has been made, an oncologist should be considered. If your child has an enlarged liver or spleen, this can often be a sign of some cancers in children, and any questions you may have if they carry a doctor.
