What are the lymph nodes?

The lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped organs of the immune system designed to filter out cell waste and bacteria, and to fight infection in our body. Clusters of lymph nodes are located widely throughout our body in the neck, armpits, abdomen, and groin.

What is lymphoma?

Lymphoma is cancer that begins in the cells of lymph nodes. This cancer is caused when your white blood cells work erratically and do not form, divide, or multiply normally. This results in useless cells which collect in the lymph nodes and grow into tumors.

Signs and symptoms of lymphoma

Most of the signs and symptoms of lymphoma appear to be harmless symptoms that can be related to a number of other diseases. Lymphoma can be slow growing and generally does not raise alarm until in progressed stages. Symptoms could include:

• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Weight loss
• Abdominal pain
• Fatigue
• Night sweats
• Fever
  

Traditional treatment options for lymphoma

There are minimal treatment options for lymphoma. Surgery may be suggested to remove a large tumor. Treatment options could include the use of toxic medicines. Your doctor may also suggest:

• Surgery
• Chemotherapy
• Radiation therapy
• Bone marrow transplant
  

Radiation therapy may also be considered an option for some lymphoma patients. Radiation therapy is used in an attempt to destroy cancerous cells and cause a reduction in tumor size. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy are often performed simultaneously.
