What's going on with lymphoma?
summary
There is a friend whose family has always been warm and happy. Unfortunately, something happened. Not long ago, his family was diagnosed with malignant lymphoma. Doctors say it's Hodgkin's lymphoma. The incidence rate of metastasis and metastasis has been in the middle and advanced stage. Doctors say Hodgkin lymphoma is a relatively high incidence of lymphoma. Now the suggestion is to do systemic chemotherapy, to see the effect after chemotherapy, and then do further treatment. Let's take a look at the following.
What's going on with lymphoma?
First, lymphoma is divided into two types, one is Hodgkin lymphoma and the other is non Hodgkin lymphoma. In contrast, the incidence rate of Hodgkin lymphoma is relatively high in China. The prognosis of Hodgkin's lymphoma is closely related to the disease condition and the type of cancer cells.
Second: however, if the patient's condition is relatively serious, at the time of diagnosis, it has reached the middle and late stage, and the cells have spread and metastasized to other organs. At this time, the treatment plan often chooses systemic chemotherapy, and the prognosis is not particularly good.
Third: if the patient is diagnosed in time at an early stage, and there are no systemic symptoms, and if the cancer cells have spread to other organs and systems of the body, the treatment effect is very good, and the 5-year survival rate can reach more than 90%. In the early stage of lymphoma, radiotherapy is advocated.
matters needing attention
There is a certain probability that any kind of cancer can be cured. Although the probability is very small, the cure rate is closely related to the patient's condition and the patient's own constitution.
