Chloroma (Chloroma)

Chloroma is a rare tumor that often develops in patients with myeloid leukemia. This tumor consists primarily of a collection of atypical leukemia cells and is usually greenish in color. Although a fresh cut from chloroma does appear green, it quickly discolors when exposed to air. However, when irradiated with ultraviolet rays, chloroma glows red, making it unique among other tumors.

Tumor-like chloroma nodes are most often observed in the periosteum of flat and long tubular bones, especially in children in the facial skull area. This is because these areas contain a lot of bone marrow, which is the main source of leukemia cells.

Chloroma is a tumor that responds well to special anti-leukemic treatment. However, like any other cancer treatment, it may have side effects such as nausea, vomiting, fatigue and hair loss. In some cases, surgery may be required to remove the tumor.

Although chloroma is a rare tumor, it can be dangerous and requires proper attention. If you suspect chloroma, see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

Chloroma is a tumor that often develops in myeloid leukemia and consists of an accumulation of atypical leukocytes. This malignant tumor takes its name from the Greek language and refers to the green or yellow-green hue that a fresh cut takes on on the tumor.

The tumor is one of the most aggressive types of leukemic tumors and is most often diagnosed in men over 34 years of age. It affects mainly the flat and long tubular bones of the skeleton, as well as the facial bones of the skull. But it is worth noting that chloroma can appear in any other parts of the body.

Chloromas (English chloroma, from chloros - green and -oma - the end of tumors) is one of the types of leukemia, the most common. This tumor formation is characteristic of multiple organ systems and is characterized by pronounced bursts of blast cells in the bone marrow, central nervous system, spleen, and bones.

During an exacerbation, the total number of leukocytes in the blood increases, atypical myelocytes and lymphoblasts appear. Patients experience fatigue, elevated body temperature, heavy bleeding, damage to the inner ear or ocular metastases. A buildup of white blood cells suggests inflammation in the body. **Causes and risk groups** Leukemia is a viral formation, according to scientists. The formation causes chronic infection in the mucous membranes caused by the papilloma virus

Chloroma is a malignant tumor of the hematopoietic system, most often found on flat bones. It occurs as an independent disease, but can also be a complication of leukemic diseases. The development of a tumor is associated with high levels of erythropoietin in the body, which indicates the destruction of the bone marrow. A cluster of tumor-like nodes is discovered, visually similar to a soft tissue tumor, and they are removed. A 5-year survival rate is observed, depending on the location and stage of the disease.
