Overview
Blood cancers affect the production and function of your blood cells. Stem cells in your bone marrow mature and develop into red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. In most blood cancers, the normal blood cell development process is interrupted by uncontrolled growth of an abnormal type of blood cell. These abnormal blood cells, or cancerous cells, prevent your blood from performing many of its functions. Each year, thousands of people develop blood diseases, such as leukemia, Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and multiple myeloma that are treatable with blood stem cell or bone marrow transplants.
