Cancer of the body's blood-forming tissues, such as the lymphatic system and bone marrow, is known as leukaemia.
There are various forms of leukaemia. Some leukaemia types are more prevalent in children. Most cases of other types of leukaemia are in adults.
Usually, leukaemia affects white blood cells. Your white blood cells are effective infection-fighting agents; they typically grow and divide in an organised manner as required by your body. But in leukaemia patients, the bone marrow makes many aberrant, dysfunctional white blood cells.
