Resumen de Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is the fifth most common cancer in the UK, and represents a heterogeneous group of malignancies. This article will give an overview of lymphoid neoplasms, concentrating on the common subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). Clinical outcomes in B-cell NHL have significantly improved in the past decade, largely due to the availability of the monoclonal antibody, rituximab. However, some aggressive lymphomas, including many T-cell disorders, still carry a poor prognosis.
