Leukemia Induced

Induced leukemia (l. inducta) is a type of cancer that develops as a result of exposure of the body to chemicals, radiation or other environmental factors. Unlike genetically determined forms of leukemia, induced leukemia occurs due to changes in the DNA of bone marrow cells under the influence of external factors.

The main reasons for the development of induced leukemia are high doses of radiation and contact with chemicals such as benzene, formaldehyde and nitrogenous compounds. However, the disease can also develop with prolonged exposure to low doses of radiation or chemicals.

Induced leukemia can manifest itself with a variety of symptoms, including weakness, fatigue, fever, anemia, weight loss, increased bleeding tendency, and others. The diagnosis of induced leukemia is made on the basis of a blood and bone marrow test, as well as a biopsy.

Treatment for induced leukemia depends on the stage of the disease and may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, bone marrow transplantation, or a combination of these methods. All of them are aimed at destroying cancer cells and restoring healthy cells.

In general, induced leukemia is a serious disease and requires timely consultation with a doctor and appropriate treatment. However, modern diagnostic and treatment methods make it possible to achieve good results in the fight against this disease.
