ACUTE LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA/LYMPHOMA
Dec
This acute lymphocytic leukemia/lymphoma usually happens in children from 3- 5 years old. Why? Because at this age, the lymphocytes in children proliferate much, this also happens with adults; however, the rate is rare, and about 10% -15% of adults suffer from this acute lymphocytic leukemia.
Lymphocytes basically have two types, B cells and T cells. When we say “acute,” we talk about “precursor cells.” A precursor cell is an immature cell, and the size of the cell is large. this Acute can happen with B cell or T cell, so we call “ABLL” or “ATLL”.
If we diagnose it well, then we can treat it well.
Nowadays, with the development of Western medicine, we have one type of drug that can help treat this cancer and control them very well; the name of that drug is Imatinib Mesylate”.
