Other specified malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, haematopoietic and related tissue - what does this mean

Other specified malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, haematopoietic and related tissue occur when cells in the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system grow and divide uncontrollably. this growth can form tumors, which can spread to other parts of the body.

What happens during the disease - other specified malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, haematopoietic and related tissue

The pathogenesis of other specified malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, haematopoietic and related tissue is believed to be caused by mutations in the dna of the lymphoid, haematopoietic, and related tissue cells. these mutations can cause the cells to divide and grow uncontrollably, leading to the formation of malignant tumors. in some cases, these mutations can be inherited, while in others they can be caused by environmental factors such as radiation or certain chemicals.
