Background:Lymphoma is a malignancy that occurs primarily in the lymph nodes. Lymphoma divided into 2 major parts, namely: Non-Hodgkins (LNH) and Hodgkins (LH). About 85% of these malignancies are LNH. Epidemiological studies have found LH rare children under 5 years age relatively adults, but most common cancer among aged 15-19 years. Computed Tomography Scan(CT-Scan) frequently used examinati...

We have studied the thrombocytopenia of lymphoproliferative disorders using a measurement of membrane-bound IgG by an antiglobulin consumption assay. Nine patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and thrombocytopenia had increased membrane-bound IgG. Two patients with non-Hodgkins lymphoma and 1 patient with Hodgkins disease also had thrombocytopenia and increased membrane-bound IgG. Fi...

Supported in part by a grant provided by “IASIS” a non-profit organization raising funds for Research in Leukemias, Lymphomas and related disorders come. AAS I/IIA are definitely non-advanced for most study groups. Non-advanced stages are further classified as “early” or “early favourable” and “intermediate” or “early unfavourable” according to the presence of adverse features. Table 1 summariz...

Objective: To determine the proportion of Hodgkins lymphoma in cervical lymphadenopathy. Methodology: This is a prospective study conducted at Isra University Hospital, Hyderabad between January 2002 to December 2006. The data was collected for all patients presenting with cervical lymphadenopathy during the above mentioned period. All the patients with cervical lymphadenopathy were subjected t...

Lymphoproliferative disease complicates the clinical course ofHIV infection in approximately 10% of patients and the incidence of Non Hodgkins Lymphoma is 60-200 times more common than the general population.3'4 Diffuse large B cell lymphoma, Burkitt's Lymphoma, Burkitt like Lymphoma and Primary Cerebral Lymphoma are the most common subtypes with Hodgkins Disease, Plasmacytoma and Body Cavity B...

BACKGROUND Non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL) is a heterogeneous group of malignancies, originating in the lymphatic organs, whose incidence is increasing in developed as well as developing countries. Epidemiological evidence suggests that aspirin may reduce the incidence and mortality of several cancers. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the potential relationship between using aspirin...

Hodgkins' lymphoma (HL) which has relapsed post or is refractory to autologous bone marrow transplant presents an ongoing treatment challenge. Development of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) for the treatment of HL has aimed to replicate the success of mAb therapy in the treatment on Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. The identification of CD30 as a potential target for treatment has led to the development of a...

We report Case Report Massive Thymic Hyperplasia Mimicking Lymphoma:...

Burkitt Lymphoma (BL) is a high grade Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (NHL) that is characterized histopathologically by a mass of diffuse small non-cleaved B cell lymphocytes [1,2]. It is a highly aggressive lymphoma that frequently presents in extranodal sites with a very high proliferation rate. It is the fastest growing tumour, characterized by explosive growth with a doubling time of 24 hours. BL is...
