CANCER - ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW What is Lymphoma?
Lymphoma is a type of cancer that originates in the lymphatic system, which is a crucial part of the immune system. It primarily affects lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that helps fight infection. Lymphoma can occur in lymph nodes, bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and other parts of the body.
Types of Lymphoma: Lymphomas are broadly divided into two main categories:
1. Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL): Key Feature: Presence of Reed-Sternberg cells (a specific type of abnormal lymphocyte) in the lymph nodes. Subtypes:
2. Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL): A more diverse group of lymphomas. Classified Based on Growth: •Indolent NHL: Slow-growing (e.g., follicular lymphoma). •Aggressive NHL: Fast-growing (e.g., diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma). •Classified by Cell Type: •B-Cell Lymphomas: Most common type, e.g., diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma. •T-Cell and NK-Cell Lymphomas: Less common, e.g., peripheral T-cell lymphoma, anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
Symptoms of Lymphoma: Symptoms depend on the type and stage but often include:
General Symptoms:
Specific Symptoms:
Diagnosis of Lymphoma
1.Medical History and Physical Examination: Identifying swollen lymph nodes, liver, or spleen. 2.Lymph Node Biopsy: A definitive test where a sample of the lymph node is analyzed for cancer cells. 3.Imaging Tests:
4.Blood Tests:
5.Bone Marrow Biopsy: Checks for lymphoma cells in the bone marrow. 6.Molecular and Genetic Testing: Identifies specific mutations or markers that influence treatment.
Treatment of Lymphoma
1. Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL):
2. Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL):
•Indolent NHL:
Aggressive NHL:
Prognosis and Follow-Up: Prognosis depends on the type, stage, and patient factors. Regular follow-ups with imaging and blood tests are crucial to monitor remission and detect recurrences.
Advances in targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and diagnostic tools have significantly improved survival rates and outcomes for many lymphoma patients. Early diagnosis and a tailored treatment approach are essential for successful management. |
