леукемија
A class of cancers of the blood cells and blood-forming organs resulting in exceptionally high leukocyte (white blood cell) production. Other organs can become involved as well. Leukemia can be caused by some viruses, chemicals, and radiation. However, there also may be a genetic connection. For instance, individuals with Down syndrome have a much higher chance of developing leukemia.
