Everyone knows that the function of lymphatic system is to detoxify, but sometimes it can become overwhelming and cause various problems in our body. Malignant lymphoma is one of them, which poses great harm to the human body. I believe many mothers are also curious about what this disease is. Let's take a look together.
Staging of malignant lymphoma
Stage I lesions only involve a single regional lymph node.
Stage IE lesions only invade a single organ other than lymph nodes.
Stage II lesions involve two or more regional lymph nodes on the same side of the diaphragm.
Stage IIE lesions have limited invasion of organs other than lymph nodes and one or more regional lymph nodes on the same side of the transverse septum.
Stage III invasion of lymph nodes on both sides of the diaphragm.
In stage IIIE, an organ other than the lymph nodes is affected, along with lymph nodes on both sides of the diaphragm.
Stage IV lesions have invaded multiple lymph nodes and areas outside of lymph nodes, such as the lungs, liver, and bone marrow.
In addition, staging can be divided into two categories based on symptoms, A and B, with A being asymptomatic. B. Fever and night sweats. Weight loss of more than 10% within six months.
Causes of malignant lymphoma
Lymphoma is a disease caused by abnormal differentiation and proliferation of immune active cells at different developmental stages under the joint action of internal and external factors in the body. The etiology of lymphoma has not been fully elucidated yet, and its occurrence and development involve various factors such as genetics, viral and other pathogen infections, radiation, chemical drugs, and immune status.
The main manifestations of lymphoma
Malignant lymphoma is a collective term for a group of malignant tumors originating from the lymphatic hematopoietic system, characterized by painless lymphadenopathy and involvement of all tissues and organs throughout the body. Lymphoma patients may experience systemic symptoms such as fever, night sweats, weight loss, and skin itching before or at the same time as lymph node enlargement.
So everyone must be cautious about lymphoma. When encountering situations mentioned in the encyclopedia, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner, detect and treat early, and let oneself feel at ease.
