Hodgkin’s lymphoma, also known as Hodgkin’s disease, is a malignant tumor (cancer) that originates in the lymphatic system. It manifests as an uncontrolled proliferation of abnormal Reed-Sternberg cells in lymphoid organs (lymph nodes, spleen, etc.) and non-lymphoid organs, leading to enlargement of lymph nodes, destruction of organ structures, and compression and obstruction of adjacent organs, with systemic symptoms, etc. Hodgkin’s lymphoma is a curable malignant tumor. 1. Painless superficial lymph node enlargement, most commonly in the neck, which may be accompanied by painful swelling after drinking alcohol, etc.; 2. Symptoms caused by lymph node enlargement compressing and obstructing adjacent organs, such as difficulty in breathing, chest pain, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, etc.; 3. Systemic symptoms, manifested as fever, night sweats, wasting, itchy skin, etc.; 4. Organ metastasis, metastasis to bones, lungs, liver, bone marrow, causing corresponding symptoms, etc. How to diagnose this disease? Hodgkin’s lymphoma relies mainly on excisional biopsies of the entire superficial lymph nodes, with characteristic R-S cells seen pathologically. How is it treated? Treatment of Hodgkin’s lymphoma depends on the type of pathology, stage of the disease, prognostic factors, and health status. What is the efficacy of treatment? The cure rate for early-stage Hodgkin’s lymphoma is over 90%; for advanced Hodgkin’s lymphoma, the cure rate is 60% to 85%. What are the side effects of treatment? Hodgkin’s lymphoma is a curable tumor. Long-term complications after radiation and chemotherapy are more common than other tumors, mainly secondary tumors, reproductive function, endocrine function, cardiac insufficiency, and pulmonary fibrosis. Acute complications are mainly myelosuppression, which often occurs within a week of chemotherapy, and its recovery takes some time. During this period, patients usually need to receive adequate supportive treatment, such as the use of laminar bed isolation, leukocyte-raising therapy, antibiotic therapy and blood transfusion. What is the regular follow-up after treatment? After treatment, patients must return to the hospital for regular follow-up examinations to see if the tumor has recurred and to tell the attending physician about any symptoms that occurred during the follow-up visit.
