Haemato Oncology

Haemato-Oncology is a specialised field in Medical Oncology that deals with malignancy (cancer) related to the blood and the lymphatic system, which are broadly classified as leukaemia (blood cancers) and lymphomas (cancers related to the lymph nodes and allied organs).

Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) procedure can be an effective form of treatment for certain kinds of cancer, especially blood cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. A stem cell transplant may also be used to treat certain genetic conditions and some noncancerous blood diseases. Cytecare provides the best bone marrow transplant and has a dedicated team of experts to provide information and support to you before, during and after the transplant.

Frequently asked questions

Here are the frequently asked questions about cancer diagnosis, cancer treatment and cancer care

Not all blood diseases are malignant (cancerous)! Blood diseases encompass a wide range of conditions, including both benign and malignant disorders. While some blood diseases, such as leukaemia and lymphoma, are malignant (cancerous), there are also many non-malignant blood disorders like anaemia, haemophilia, and thrombocytopenia.

Blood cancer can occur at any age, but certain types are more common in specific age groups. For instance, acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is more prevalent in children, while chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) typically affects older adults. Overall, the risk of developing blood cancer generally increases with age, but it's essential to note that it can affect individuals of all ages. Regular check-ups at Blood Cancer Hospital and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help detect and manage blood cancer effectively.

The three primary types of blood cancer are leukaemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. Leukaemia originates in the bone marrow and affects the production of white blood cells. Lymphoma develops in the lymphatic system and affects the lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. Myeloma affects plasma cells, which are a type of white blood cell found in the bone marrow. Treatment options vary depending on the specific type and stage of the cancer, often including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, or stem cell transplantation. At Cytecare, a leading blood cancer hospital in Bangalore, our comprehensive approach to blood cancer treatment encompasses a range of advanced therapies tailored to individual needs.

Common symptoms of leukaemia include fatigue, frequent infections, easy bruising or bleeding, swollen lymph nodes, and unexplained weight loss. If you experience any of these symptoms, look for a Blood Cancer Treatment in Bangalore for proper evaluation and diagnosis.

CBC (Complete Blood Count) can help detect leukaemia. Leukaemia is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, causing an abnormal increase in white blood cells. A CBC can detect abnormalities in the blood, including elevated white blood cell counts, which may indicate leukaemia. However, further diagnostic tests such as bone marrow biopsy and genetic testing are typically needed to confirm a leukaemia diagnosis.
