Hodgkin lymphoma - what does this mean

Hodgkin lymphoma occurs when a type of white blood cell called a lymphocyte develops an abnormal genetic mutation, resulting in uncontrolled cell growth and division. this causes the formation of tumors in the lymph nodes, which can spread to other organs and tissues.

What happens during the disease - hodgkin lymphoma

Hodgkin lymphoma is a type of cancer that originates in the lymphatic system and is caused by an abnormal growth of b-cells. these b-cells accumulate and form tumors in various parts of the body, such as the lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow. this abnormal growth is caused by a genetic mutation that results in the cells dividing and multiplying uncontrollably. this uncontrolled growth can spread throughout the body and cause damage to healthy tissues.
