Mixed cellularity classical hodgkin lymphoma - what does this mean

Mixed cellularity classical hodgkin lymphoma is a type of cancer that occurs when abnormal lymphocytes, which are a type of white blood cell, grow and spread uncontrollably in the lymphatic system, leading to enlarged lymph nodes, fever, fatigue, and other symptoms. the cause of this type of lymphoma is unknown, but it is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors.

What happens during the disease - mixed cellularity classical hodgkin lymphoma

Mixed cellularity classical hodgkin lymphoma is a type of cancer that develops in the lymphatic system. it is caused by a mutation in the b-cell lymphoma gene, which results in an uncontrolled proliferation of b-cells that form a tumor. this tumor then produces abnormal proteins and cytokines that cause inflammation and damage to the surrounding lymph nodes and organs. the tumor cells also release chemicals that attract other immune cells to the area, resulting in a mixed population of cells that can include lymphocytes, macrophages, and eosinophils. the combination of these cells leads to an increase in the tumor's size and spread throughout the body.
