Leukemia Megakaryoblastic

Megakaryoblastic leukemia is a blood cancer that begins with changes in white blood cells. When cancer develops, it begins to grow faster and turns into large cells called megakaryoblasts. Cancer cells can make their own protein instead of making missing proteins from food.

When megacareoblastic leukemia gets sick as it grows, it very quickly kills cells that are different from normal. This can lead to serious health problems and increased risks of death. Leukemia can develop in different people at different ages—leukemia does not have to occur in children. However, in practice, damage to the body by acute leukemia is often observed in the child population after 5 years. The peak incidence occurs between the ages of 3 and 7 years, but the age range is quite wide and depends on the prevalence of precancerous blood diseases, primarily platelet multicytopenia. In the group of five-year-old patients, only 20% of children had no manifestations of hematopoietic defects in previous years [2]. Most often, the diagnosis of the disease is made after magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and if there is suspicion, a bone marrow puncture is immediately prescribed
