📖What is Lymphoma?
Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, the network of vessels and nodes that plays a central role in the body's immune defenses, arising from abnormal proliferation of lymphocytes. It is broadly classified into Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which differ in their cell characteristics, behavior, and treatment approach. The disease often presents as painless swelling of lymph nodes in the neck, armpit, or groin, but can involve any organ containing lymphatic tissue. Prognosis varies widely by subtype, ranging from highly curable to more aggressive forms requiring intensive treatment.
