    Understanding Lymphoma

    Understanding Lymphoma

    Understanding Lymphoma

    Lymphoma is a type of blood cancer that begins in the lymphatic system, a vital part of the body’s immune system. It is also called lymphatic cancer, as it primarily starts in white blood cells, called lymphocytes, that help in fighting infection.

    It may also develop in different parts of the lymphatic system, including lymph nodes, blood, bone marrow, spleen, and other tissues throughout the body.

    It can be a fast-growing or aggressive lymphoma that needs immediate treatment or a slow-growing or indolent type that may not show symptoms for years.

    Understanding the type and stage of lymphoma is essential for guiding appropriate treatment and care.

    Causes And Risk Factors of Lymphoma

    Causes And Risk Factors of Lymphoma

    Lymphoma develops when genetic changes occur in the DNA of the lymphocytes. These changes may cause lymphocytes to grow uncontrollably and accumulate in different parts of the lymphatic system, leading to abnormal division of lymphocytes, especially in the lymph nodes, spleen, and liver.

    The different risk factors of lymphoma include

    • A family history of lymphoma
    • Certain infections involving the viruses, including HIV,
    • Epstein-Barr, and Kaposi sarcoma, human immunodeficiency virus
    • Weakened immune system
    • Previous cancer treatment
    • Long-term exposure to pesticides, herbicides, and solvents, including benzene
    • Age-related risk. Aged 60 or older for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Aged between 15 and 40 or older than 55 for
    • Hodgkin lymphoma.

    Types of Lymphoma

    Types of Lymphoma

    Types of Lymphoma

    Lymphoma is broadly classified into two main types, based on the characteristics of the cancerous cells. The two main types of lymphoma include

    • Hodgkin lymphoma: It is characterized by a special kind of cell called a Reed-Sternberg cell, visible under the microscope. It is often curable and has a favorable diagnosis, especially when diagnosed early.

    It can be:

    • Classical Hodgkin lymphoma
    • Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma
    • Non-Hodgkin lymphoma: These lymphomas do not have the Reed-Sternberg cells and represent a diverse group of blood cancers. It can be either B-cell or T-cell lymphomas, depending on the type of lymphocyte affected.
      • Fast-growing non-Hodgkin lymphoma includes Burkitt lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and primary central nervous system lymphoma.
      • Slow-growing non-Hodgkin lymphoma includes follicular lymphoma, MALT lymphoma, and Waldenstrom macroglobulinaemia.

    Stages of Lymphoma

    The stages of lymphoma may vary depending on the type of lymphoma, including stages 1 to 4.

    Stage 1: Cancer is limited to a single lymph node region or a site outside the lymph nodes.

    Stage 2: Cancer is found in two or more lymph node regions on the same side of the diaphragm.

    Stage 3: Cancer is found in the lymph node regions on both sides of the diaphragm.

    Stage 4: It spreads to one or more organs outside the lymphatic system.

    Symptoms of Lymphoma

    Symptoms of Lymphoma

    The symptoms of lymphoma may vary depending on the type and the part of the body affected. It may not show symptoms in the early stages.

    The different symptoms of lymphoma include

    • Swollen lymph nodes that are felt like a lump under the skin and are more often in the neck, armpit, and groin
    • Fever
    • Night sweats that may soak the clothes
    • Fatigue and unexplained weight loss
    • Pain in the chest, abdomen, or bones
    • Itchy skin
    • Cough

    If you notice these symptoms, seek immediate medical attention, as they can be warning signs for other diseases too.

    Diagnosis Of Lymphoma

    At SGVP Holistic Hospital, our expert haematology and oncology team will perform a series of tests to determine the type of lymphoma and how far it has spread.

    The different steps in the diagnosis of lymphoma include

    • Physical examination: Our healthcare provider will check for swollen lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, or groin.
    • Blood tests: They help in evaluating abnormal levels of blood cells.
    • Molecular tests: They are used to determine the changes in the genes, proteins, and other substances in cancer cells.
    • Imaging tests: They include MRI, CT, and PET scans to make pictures of the body and determine the staging of the disease and monitor the treatment response.
    • Bone marrow aspiration or biopsy: A small needle is used to remove fluid or tissue from the bone marrow to look for lymphoma cells.
    • Lumbar puncture: It may be done if the individual shows neurological symptoms or is at a higher risk of developing lymphoma.

    Accurate diagnosis and staging of lymphoma ensure the most appropriate and effective treatment for lymphoma.
