what might lymphomas invovled
Solid tissue
Marrow
Blodd
what are the types of Lymphomas
Hodgkin
non-hodgkin
Malignant proliferation of cell native to bone marrow which often spill inot blood
Leukemias
where can leukemias spread
Solid organs (liver and spleen)
what is a Lymphoma of a distinctive cell type(reed-sternberg cell)
Hodgkin lymphomea
where does Hodgkin lympohoma arise and spread
arise in SIngle lymph node to spread to invovle contiguous nodes
how can you cure hodgkin lymphoma
Chemo
Radio
when do people tend to get Hodgkin Lymphoma
Bimodel (2-3rd decade and then once at an age greater than 50)
how many new cases in 2017 of Hodgkin lymphoma
8,300
what is needed to diagnoses Hodgkin Lmyphoma
Lymph node biopsy to identigy Reed-sternberg cells in apropriate background
what do Reed-sternberg cells look like
Large with mirror image nuclei and prominent nucleoili
how much of the cells of the lymph node are malignant in the case of Hodgkin Lymphoma
less than 2%
what is the germinal center for Reed-sternberg cells
B lymphocyte
what virus is often found in a Reed-Sternberg cell
Epstein-Barr virus(70%)
what are the spread of idsease in Hodgkin Lymphoma
Lymph nodes
Spleen
Liver
Bone marrow
use of staging in Hodgkin Lymphoma
Determine treatment and prognosis
what is done to Stage Hodgkin lymphoma
Combo of clinical findings and imaging
what is low stage hodgkin lymphoma
Localized involvement
what is High stage Hodgkin lymphoma
Wide spread disease with distant of bone marrow involvement
statge 1 Hodgkin Lymphoma
Tumor in 1 anatomic region or 2 contiuous anatomic rgion on the same side of daiaphragm
stage 2 hodgkin lymphoma
Tumor in more than 2 anatomic regions or two non-contiguous regions on the same side of the diaphragm
Stage III Hodgkin Lymphoma
Tumor on both sides of the diaphragm
does no extend beyond lymph nodes, spleen or Waldeyer’s ring
stage IV Hodkin Lymphone
Tuor in bone marrow, lung, etc
- any organ side outisde lymph nodes, spleen or Waldeyer’s ring
symptoms of Hodgkin Lymphoma
Fever
Night sweats
Significant uneplained weight loss
what determines treatement of Hodgkin lymphoma
Stage
what is done to treat low stage hodgkin lymphoma
Chemo
Radio
what is done to treat high stage hodgkin lymphoma
Chem
what is the risk for development of secondary treatment related acute leukemia after treating hodkin lymphoma
Low risk
what are “B” signs/symptoms of Hodgkin Lymphoma associated with
Worse prognosis
what stage of Hodgkin lymphome tends to have B symptoms
Stage III and Stage IV
5 year survival rate of Stage I and IIA hodgkin lymphoma
ablmost 100%
5 year survivial rate of Stage IV hodgkin lymphoma
50%
do RS cells alone mean that you’ve got Hodgkin lymphoma
No, need the appropriate histo background
what does term mean for hodgkin lymphoma
Amount of rumor burden
distribution in the body
what is low stage disease mean for hodgkin lymphoma
Localized
no systemic signs (fever, weight loss)
better prognosis
what is high stage disease for hodgkin lymphoma
widespread
worse prognosis
what does deviding staging up into A and B mean for for hodgkin lymphoma
A: Absensce of systemic symtoms
B: presence of systemic symtoms
how does the lymph node look in hodgkin Lymphomas
Enlarged, painless, superficial
what complications can arise from advanced Hodgkin lymphomas
Infections
Anemia
Thrombocytopenia
what are neoplastic lymphocytes originating in lymph nodes or extranodal lymphoid tissues (arise in lymph tissue)
Non-hodgkin lymphoma
how many types of Non-hodgkin lymphoma is there
2 dozen types
what is the origin of non-hodgkin lymphoma cells
85% B cell
15% T cell
what age does incidence of Non-hodgkin lymphoma rise
steadily after age of 40
cases of on-hodgkin lymphoma in 2017
72,000
Linical sings of non-hodgkin lymphoma
Painless lymph node englargement
Systemic symptoms in 30% of patients
Frequent immune abnormalities
Splenomegaly
what else may be invovled in non-hodgkin lymphomas
GI tract
Bones

World Health Organization
what does Classification of NHL depend on
Morphologic
Clicial
Immunophenotypic
Molecular features
what growth patterns can NHL have

Small
Large
what is better Nodular or diffuse NHL
Nodule is better
what is better, large or small cell NHL
Small better than large
what is low stage NHL
Localized
what is high stage NHL
numerous sites of involvement or bone marrow invovlement
what does PRognosis of NHL depend on
on the sub-type of lymphoma(not stage, this is an exception)
- also grading
how does one treat NHL
Chemo
Possible Radiation
Bone Marrow transplant
is there more morphologic diversity in Hodgekin or non-hodgkin lymphoma
More in non-hodgkin
Does Hodgkin or non-hodgkin lymphoma have multi node invovlement
non-hodgkin has multinode invovlement
