Question
My grandmother is 64 years old and has been feeling unwell recently. She went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with lymphoma. How should lymphoma be treated?
Answer
Lymphoma is a group of malignant tumors originating from lymph nodes or other lymphatic tissues, which can be divided into two main types: Hodgkin’s disease and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Histology shows tumorous fibrosis of lymphocytes and/or histiocytes, with clinical diagnosis typically characterized by painless lymphadenopathy, frequent enlargement of the liver and spleen, and cachexia in the late stages.
