Other non-follicular lymphoma - what does this mean
Other non-follicular lymphoma is a type of lymphoma that does not originate from the follicles of the lymph nodes. it is caused by the abnormal growth of b-cells or t-cells, which are a type of white blood cells, and can spread to other parts of the body. symptoms may include fever, night sweats, weight loss, and fatigue. treatment may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and/or targeted therapy.
What happens during the disease - other non-follicular lymphoma
Other non-follicular lymphoma is a type of lymphoma that is not classified as either follicular lymphoma or diffuse large b-cell lymphoma. it is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, such as exposure to certain chemicals, radiation, and viruses. the exact cause of this type of lymphoma is unknown, but it is believed that it is related to an abnormality in the immune system that causes the body to produce abnormal lymphocytes that are unable to fight off disease. this leads to an accumulation of these abnormal cells in the lymph nodes and other parts of the body, which can cause symptoms such as enlarged lymph nodes, fever, fatigue, and weight loss.
