Leukemia is a tumor of the (malignant) hematopoietic system. With the development of pathology in the bone marrow, cancer cells divide. Their number also increases in the spleen and other organs of the immune system. As a result, the body loses the protection that the immune system provides.
Treatment of leukemia should be done in a timely manner and in a package of measures. Israeli clinics that use the latest methods and high-quality procedures have especially proven themselves in the treatment of this ailment.
Chemotherapy
This treatment of leukemia in Israel is traditional. The method allows you to suppress the processes of reproduction of cancer cells in the bone marrow. For this, modern cytostatic drugs are used that can affect cell division and lead to the destruction of clones of pathogenic cells.
With a well-designed program of chemotherapeutic exposure, you can get good results and significantly extend the life of the patient. Cytostatic drugs are taken in the form of tablets, administered intravenously. At the same time, it is important to observe the regimen of the use of drugs, which will prolong the course of remission and eliminate the development of relapses.
Brain (bone marrow) transplant
The treatment of acute leukemia or relapse is successfully performed using this method. For its implementation, it is necessary to achieve complete hematological remission. This allows you to do chemotherapy. The cytostatics used in high doses destroy leukemia cells, and in their place a new substance is transplanted, which is taken from a donor from the bone marrow.
In addition, radiation therapy may be prescribed to destroy cell clones . However, with this aggressive effect, a negative effect occurs both on the tumor and on healthy cells. The protection of the immune system decreases sharply and the patient's susceptibility to environmental influences increases.
Treatment of leukemia in Israel is carried out under the strict supervision of the patient, with the creation of special conditions. To eliminate the negative effects of the environment, water, food and even air that come in contact with the patient are cleaned.
The process of engraftment of the brain continues for several weeks, after which the patient, with stable blood counts, can go home.
Cell (stem) transplantation
This is a promising method by which leukemia is treated in Israel. Cell elements introduced to the patient are able to turn into red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. A stem cell preparation is obtained from the blood of a donor or the patient himself. The procedure is performed at the stage of remission of the pathology. When performing a transplant, the patient should be in particularly sterile conditions to avoid the occurrence of concomitant ailments. After surgery, most people have a stable remission.
Targeted therapy
The treatment of leukemia in Israel is carried out using the latest advanced methods that, at the cellular level, affect the production of elements of the circulatory system. Specialists apply nanotherapy techniques that allow delivery of drug molecules directly to cells. Such treatment is effective and as directed as possible, it allows you to get good results.
