In fiction, AFFSO was admitted to a hospital to start treatment with chemotherapy. Now, the character, who has also scraped his hair, awaits the next steps to find out if the treatment is effective.
Leukemia is a type of blood carcinoma that affects blood cells, in particular leukocytes (white blood cells). The disease occurs when the bone marrow begins to produce abnormal cells that do not work correctly and multiplies in an uncontrollable way. Sick cells end up destroying healthy cells, which compromise the production of red blood cells, platelets and healthy leukocytes.
According to Jorge Abyssamra Filho, oncological coordinator of the Santa Clara hospital and specialist in clinical oncology, the most common symptoms of myeloid leukemia are weakness, tiredness, bleeding, coast, fever without apparent cause and weight loss.
According to the National Cancer Institute (Inca), Brazil recorded 10,810 new cases of leukemia per year between 2020 and 2022 LMC mainly affects adults over the age of 60, while LMA is rare in people under the age of 45, with the average age of patients with 68 years.
“The treatment depends on the type of leukemia (acute, chronic, myeloid or lymphoid) and can include chemotherapy as the main form of treatment to destroy the sick cells,” he said to Earth. In the plot, the type of leukemia of AFONSO Roitman has not yet been revealed to the spectators.
Among other treatments for leukemia are:
- Target therapies, such as drugs that attack specific changes in cancer cells;
- Immunotherapy, which stimulates the immune system to combat disease;
- Bone marrow transplantation (if necessary, replaces the sick marrow with a healthy one);
- Radiotherapy, used in specific cases.
In the case of AFONSO, one of the solutions that will be offered after chemotherapy is bone marrow transplantation. The treatment consists in the replacement of the sick bone marrow of a patient with healthy stem cells of a donor, who can be a relative close to the patient.
In the scene that aired last Saturday, the character of Humberto Carrão has scraped hair as a solar (Alice Wegmann), who also expects two children from the heir of Odete Roitman (Debora Bloch).
According to the expert, patients who perform chemotherapy usually scrach their heads because during this type of treatment, hair falls as a side effect.
“This is because chemotherapy not only affects sick cells, but also normal cells that multiply quickly – like those of the hair follicle. Many patients prefer to scrape their heads soon to better manage the fall and have greater control over the appearance,” he explained.
