Lymphoma

Lymphoma

Lymphoma is a type of cancer that originates in the lymphatic system, a vital part of the immune system. This cancer affects the lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell, leading to the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Lymphomas are broadly categorized as Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), with numerous subtypes.

Early diagnosis is crucial, and individuals experiencing persistent symptoms should seek medical attention for accurate evaluation and timely intervention.

Treatments

Chemotherapy: Administering powerful drugs to destroy or control cancer cells throughout the body, often the primary treatment for lymphomas.

Radiation Therapy: Using high-energy rays to target and eliminate cancer cells, particularly effective in treating localized lymphomas.

Immunotherapy: Enhancing the body’s immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells, a promising approach for certain types of lymphomas.

Stem Cell Transplantation: Replacement of damaged or diseased bone marrow with healthy stem cells, often used for more aggressive lymphomas or after high-dose chemotherapy.

Targeted Therapies: Utilizing medications that target specific molecules involved in the growth and survival of cancer cells, a more focused and less toxic approach.
