What Diseases Does Hematology Address?
Hematology is the branch of medicine that studies blood, blood-forming organs, and blood disorders. Hematological diseases are caused by problems in the production, function, or structure of blood cells. Some of the key conditions include:
Anemia: A condition characterized by a deficiency of healthy red blood cells in the blood. Various types of anemia such as iron deficiency anemia, vitamin deficiency anemia, and thalassemia fall under the scope of hematology.
Leukemias: A type of cancer resulting from the uncontrolled proliferation of blood cells in the bone marrow. Examples include acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
Lymphomas: Cancers originating from lymphatic system cells. Hematologists assess and treat Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
Multiple Myeloma: A cancer type that arises from plasma cells and affects the bone marrow.
Thrombocytopenia: A condition where the blood has a lower than normal level of platelets (clotting cells).
Hemophilia and Other Coagulation Disorders: Genetic or acquired conditions that affect the blood’s ability to clot.
Myeloproliferative Diseases: Conditions involving the excessive production of blood cells in the bone marrow. Examples include polycythemia vera and primary myelofibrosis.
Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP): A condition where the immune system attacks platelets, leading to low platelet levels.
Immunodeficiency Disorders: Issues related to the immune system and conditions requiring bone marrow transplantation.
Aplastic Anemia: A condition where the bone marrow fails to produce adequate blood cells.

Anemia, bone marrow deficiencies
Diseases such as sickle cell anemia, Mediterranean anemia (thalassemia)

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) Symptoms and Treatment
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is a blood cancer that occurs mainly in children. Learn about its symptoms, diagnosis and treatment options.
Hematology: Early Diagnosis and Personalized Treatment
Early diagnosis in hematology plays a crucial role in improving patient outcomes by identifying blood disorders such as anemia, leukemia, and lymphoma at the onset, allowing for timely intervention.
Hemophilia is a hereditary bleeding disorder that occurs approximately in 1 out of 10,000 births worldwide. One of the most important complications of this hereditary disease, arising from a problem in the blood clotting mechanism, is the inability to stop bleeding.
