Overview
The most potent risk factor in the development of hairy cell leukemia is chemicals exposure. Other risk factors include radiation exposure, UV light and sawdust exposure.
Risk Factors
- Common risk factors in the development of hairy cell leukemia include the following:[1][2]
| Risk Factor | Description |
|---|---|
| Chemicals exposure | Exposure to either herbicides or diesel may be correlated with an increased risk of hairy cell leukemia. |
| Radiation exposure |
Excessive X ray imaging or prior radiotherapy may be associated with increased risk of hairy cell leukemia. |
| Sawdust exposure | Occupations that involve exposure to sawdust and wood may be associated with increased risk of hairy cell leukemia development. |
| Ethnicity | Hairy cell leukemia usually more commonly affects individuals of the Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. |
| Gender | Males are more commonly affected with hairy cell leukemia than females. |
| Age | The chance to develop hairy cell leukemia increases as patients get older, where it is rarely diagnosed in patients younger than 30 years of age. |
