envoyerDonnez your avisImprimer
Lymphomas can be of several types. In contrast to Hodgkin's disease, cells of Stenberg are not present during non-hodgkiniens lymphoma. There are several forms of lymphoma non hodgkiniens, more or less serious, type B or T depending on the class of affected cells.
What are the symptoms of lymphoma non hodgkiniens?
The main symptom of non-hodgkiniens lymphoma is the increase in volume of the lymph nodes (Lymphadenopathy) that can be observed at the level of the groin, axillary hollows or cervical region. These Lymphadenopathy may be accompanied by fever, night sweats, itching, weight loss and altered general State. Cough and respiratory difficulties may also appear, due to the possible presence of lymph nodes in the mediastinum.

What are the main forms of lymphoma non hodgkiniens?
There are many types of malignant lymphomas not hodgkiniens. The two major forms are indolent lymphomas and aggressive lymphomas. Indolent lymphomas are very slow and so more readily curable than the aggressive lymphomas. These are very fast-paced and require early treatment by chemotherapy, radiation therapy or targeted therapies. Stem cell transplants are also possible. The prognosis for this type of lymphoma is darker than the other. There are also the Burkitt Lymphoma, more specific.
