This rare but important disease has restricted endemic areas and distinct clinical features such as a high frequency of hypercalcemia, strong predisposition to infection and poor response to chemotherapy, aspects which set ATL apart from other types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Given the small number of patients, enrollment in clinical trials has not been feasible, and establishing treatment standard has been difficult but new evidence, such as results of nationwide studies on transplantation, have shown new insights and potential treatments. Based on recent evidence, the book presents new treatment methods for ATL and infection prevention of HTLV-1, enabling clinicians, researchers and post-docs specializing in hematology and virology to gain a valuable overview of the disease. 606 $aHematology 606 $aOncology 606 $aInfectious diseases 606 $aImmunology 606 $aHematology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H3307X 606 $aOncology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160 606 $aInfectious Diseases$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33096 606 $aImmunology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B14000 615 0$aHematology. 615 0$aOncology. 615 0$aInfectious diseases. 615 0$aImmunology. 615 14$aHematology. 615 24$aOncology. 615 24$aInfectious Diseases. 615 24$aImmunology. 676 $a616.15 702 $aWatanabe$b Toshiki$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFukushima$b Takuya$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254476903321 996 $aAdult T-cell Leukemia$91551235 997 $aUNINA
