Patient: The patient was male, 35 years old, previously in good health. One month later, another lump appeared in his armpit, and he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma diffuse large B-cell in the city people’s hospital. I was discharged from the hospital after one stage of chemotherapy, but about 2 months later, I had a low fever and a lump in my armpit, and the doctor said that it was stage III and I was undergoing chemotherapy. Can you give me some treatment advice on the current plan? Cui Guohui, Department of Hematology, Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital
Cui Guohui, Department of Hematology, Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital: The first choice of treatment for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is Merova + CHOP, one course of treatment every 3 weeks, usually 6 to 8 courses of treatment. You said you had chemotherapy for one stage and the result was good. What was the regimen used, how many courses of treatment, and whether complete remission or partial remission was achieved? I hope you can provide more detailed information so that we can give some treatment suggestions.
