Lymphoma
Lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the lymphatic system, which defends the body against infections and diseases. This system includes lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell), lymph nodes, the spleen, and bone marrow. In lymphoma, lymphocytes undergo changes that cause uncontrolled multiplication, forming tumours and impairing immune function.
There are two main types: Hodgkin lymphoma, characterized by Reed-Sternberg cells, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which encompasses a broader range of subtypes.
Symptoms include swollen lymph nodes, fever, fatigue, night sweats, and weight loss, though they vary by type and stage. Diagnosis involves biopsies, imaging, and blood tests.
Treatment depends on the type and stage, often involving chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and, in some cases, bone marrow transplants. At HPA Health Group, we provide a multidisciplinary, personalized approach with experienced specialists and advanced technology to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
