Common bone marrow diseases are leukemias, or cancers of the white blood cells; anemias, or the inability to produce enough red blood cells; genetic disorders; environmentally provoked diseases; and the spread of other cancers such as lymphomas. They can be caused by genetic or environmental factors, or a combination of the two. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Bone Marrow Diseases]
