Lymphoma Peer-review Journals

Lymphoma may be a cancer of the systema lymphaticum . It develops in lymphocytes, which are a kind of white blood corpuscle . These cells help fight disease within the body and play an important role within the body’s immune defenses.
As this sort of cancer is present within the lymph system, it can quickly metastasize, or spread, to different tissues and organs throughout the body. Lymphoma most frequently spreads to the liver, bone marrow, or lungs. People of any age can develop lymphoma, but it's among the foremost common causes of cancer in children and young adults aged 15–24 years. it's often treatable. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which is that the commonest type, typically develops from B and T lymphocytes (cells) within the lymph nodes or tissues throughout the body. Tumor growth in non-Hodgkin lymphoma might not affect every lymph gland , often skipping some and growing on others.

Lymphoma is different from leukemia. Each of these cancers starts in a different type of cell. Lymphoma starts in infection-fighting lymphocytes. Leukemia starts in blood-forming cells inside bone marrow. Lymphoma is also not the same as lymphedema, which is a collection of fluid that forms under the skin when lymph nodes are damaged
