Question
My grandmother is 68 years old and has recently been feeling unwell. After hospital examination, it was found that she has lymphoma. Can lymphoma be cured?
Answer
Lymphoma is a highly malignant tumor, with more than 90% of patients dying within one year in the past. However, with the advancement of treatment technology, most malignant lymphomas today have the potential for cure. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy are currently the main methods for treating malignant lymphomas, with significant effects. Especially in the treatment of Hodgkin’s disease, there have been significant advancements, with the overall 10-year survival rate now greatly increased to over 50%, with most likely achieving remission.
