Coming soonChemotherapy-induced neutropenia is a common hematologic complication of cytotoxic cancer therapy, characterized by an abnormally low absolute neutrophil count in the peripheral blood.
It primarily affects oncology patients receiving myelosuppressive antineoplastic regimens that impair hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell proliferation in the bone marrow.
Pathophysiologically, the transient destruction of rapidly dividing myeloid precursors depletes circulating innate immune cells, typically reaching a nadir within one to two weeks following treatment.
Clinically, this suppression significantly impairs host defense mechanisms, predisposing patients to severe infections, febrile neutropenia, and dose-limiting chemotherapy delays or reductions.
