Which secondary cancers are the most commonly diagnosed?
Livingston: Leukemias,
lymphomas and sarcomas. But there are others, such as
breast cancer,
lung cancer, and
thyroid cancer, too. It really depends on a patient’s prior treatment and how it was administered. People who receive
radiation therapy to the chest for
Hodgkin lymphoma, for instance, are at a higher risk of developing breast cancer one day. But how much depends on several factors, including their age at the time of diagnosis, the dosage they received, and the areas of their body that received radiation.
Khazal:
Yes. Usually, they’re blood cancers like Dr. Livingston mentioned, but again, it depends on the initial disease and its treatment.
