Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, broadly divided into Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin types. It commonly presents with painless lymph-node swelling.
Diagnosed at another hospital? You’re welcome too, with no commitment to start treatment at CION.
Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, broadly divided into Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin types. It commonly presents with painless lymph-node swelling. Many lymphomas respond very well to chemotherapy and immunotherapy, with radiation used in selected situations.
Most of these have other causes too. If one lasts, see a doctor.
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
An excision or core biopsy of the enlarged node gives the precise subtype. PET-CT is the standard staging scan and is also used to assess treatment response.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team at CION Ameerpet.
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

Lymphoma treatment: Other CION centres in Hyderabad
CION treats these and other cancers. Not sure about yours? Ask when you call.
No — infections are by far the commonest cause. A node that stays enlarged beyond 3-4 weeks, keeps growing, or is accompanied by fever, sweats, or weight loss should be biopsied.
An interim PET-CT shows how well the lymphoma is responding, allowing the team to intensify or de-escalate the remaining cycles.
Several lymphoma subtypes, including Hodgkin lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, are treated with curative intent. Your oncologist will explain the outlook for your specific subtype.
