Symptoms Of Lymphoma

When in your body is found a lump, though not pain, no itching, but also do not be ignored, as there are chances are lymphoma. Lymphoma is a type of malignant tumor derived from the lymph nodes, is one of the top ten malignant tumors are often known. In the last year, the rate of occurrence has increased. Based on the report of the International Conference on the lymphatic, throughout the world in every 9 minutes 1 reported new cases of lymphoma disease. Know the symptoms of the body quickly emerged, and early mendiganosi lymphoma is highly likely in treating early stage of lymphoma, in order to extend the term of survival.

Symptoms Of Lymphoma:
　　1. Symptoms of malignant Lymphoma: on the whole, before or at the same time appearing on kelejar enlargement lymph nodes, fever symptoms may appear, itching, night sweats and weight loss and so on. If not found the existence of a cause of the occurrence of the above symptoms, blood examination can be carried out, in order to exclude Lymphoma disease.

2. Enlargement of the lymph nodes: this is a typical symptom of lymphoma, the lump does not feel pain, enlarged gradually, its surface smooth, fit like a pingpong ball touched his hard, or as the tip of the nose. Enlargement most often occurs in the lymph nodes of the neck and supraklavikula.. When the presence of enlarged lymph nodes biopsy examination, can be done. Generally taken the lymph nodes below the neck or under the armpit. This is how the diagnosis of lymphoma that is required.

3. changes in the skin

Lymphoma sufferers will appear on a series of changes to the skin, such as: eritoma, blisters, skin erosion etc. Advanced stage Lymphoma will experience a deterioration of antibodies, the skin often infection fester, exudate.

Modern Cancer Hospital of Guangzhou suggests, when it appeared the symptoms as above, has not been definitely suffered from Lymphoma, but expected to quickly review home sick, if it has been ascertained as lymphoma, treatment is given immediately, this working to improve treatment outcomes and the quality of your life.


The Diagnosis Of Lymphoma

　Pendiagnosaan lymphoma is not a blindly examination, because the position of the pathology and the range is not the same clinically showed a difference. Examination of the clinical manifestations can be the occurrence of possible errors diagnosis, so be sure to pay attention to the method of diagnosis of lymphoma, checks in tersistem.

Diagnose Lymphoma

Imaging Studies
　　1. X-ray Examination: its main purpose is to observe the hilar lymph nodes/regional lymph nodes, mediastinum lymph glands, karina and internal lymph nodes pulmonary door dairy and observe whether the presence of tumor invasion. The possibility of the enlargement of the lymph nodes anterior mediastinum and hilar lymph nodes become malignant lymphoma, please throw out pulmonary TB, fungal infections or other tumors caused by the swelling of the lymph nodes. Suspected pelvic lymph nodes or peritoneal para-aortic, lower limb lymphatic Imaging.

2. Examination of CT-Scan: with CT scan examinations can be found in lymphoid tissue under the abdomen lymph nodes that are normally difficult to detect by other checks. Examination of CT-scan of the chest can help diagnose pathology to help diagnose the position of trachea. swelling of the lymph nodes, hilar, and the aorta and other parts.

3. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): an MRI can show the vascular structures, and multi-scan from position and layer the body

4. Radioisotope scanning: comparison with the use of x-rays, bone scans can detect early changes in pathology of bone, a bone scan uptake may indicate radionuclide will rise on the lesions, and Lymphoma diffuse infiltration of bone cells.

5. ULTRASOUND: ULTRASOUND can be found by using the lymph nodes in a diameter greater than 2 cm, but can not identify the enlargement of lymph nodes caused by tumor invasion or reactive hyperplasia or chronic inflammation, ULTRASOUND examination can be found tumor nodules to enlarged liver and spleen

When the patient is Lymphoma do examination and realized the presence of tumors in the body, the doctor will do a biospi (take a sample of your network) to determine whether the tumor is malignant or not.

Biopsy of the tumor
　　1. Lymphoma maligna: Lymphoma maligna is usually to do pathological assurance, and so other pathological specimen is especially lymph nodes.

2. Bone marrow Biopsy: genesis in bone marrow lymphoma can reach 40% to 90%. Because of the importance of clinical examination of bone marrow, biospi need to be done repeatedly.

3. Liver Biopsy: non Hodgkin's lymphoma, small-cell lymphocytes and small lymphocytes and small parts of the cells more easily terjadinva at heart than large parts of cells

4. blood Picture: white blood cells of Hodgkin's disease mostly normal, small amounts of light or improved significantly, with an increase of neutrophils, about 1/5 case eosinofilia and lymphopenia too late. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients when the white blood cell count more than usual, accompanied by a relative or absolute Lymphocytosis.

Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhoy reminds you when to appear abnormal reactions to investigate as soon as possible to hospital treatment, take action as soon as possible so that it can control the progression of the disease.

Lymphoma Therapy

a cancer of the lymph nodes, treatment of lymph nodes

After terdiagnosa cancer Lymphoma, patients are often in a hurry to do treatment. As already known, the best treatment is based on the patient's condition, with symptoms clinically as: night sweats, weight loss, fever, and others, after a pendiagnosaan overall, and the determination of the new stadium, determined what treatment method will be applied.

Method of operation on cancer lymphoma is not effective, because Lymphoma covers the entire body, and method of operation can not clean it entirely. Although in some cases cancer Lymphoma do action, but the indication still has its limitations, and post-operative recurrence occurs easily. In addition, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can cause severe side effects, and on traditional medicine many error occurred on treatment that cannot be avoided.

What are the methods of treatment of cancer Lymphoma?
　　Treatment interventions

The treatment intervention is minimally invasive treatment which is a combination of a variety of sophisticated modern technology. Under the guidance of medical imaging equipment, doctors will place a special catheter kind of tools, and other sophisticated equipment into the patient's body, to do pendiagnosaan and treatment locally. The wound incision on the treatment process is very small even just about the size of seeds of rice, not to do surgery on the tissues of the body, and is very effective for lymphoma cancer who has experienced metastases have. Drugs can be directly channelled at the local part, not only can increase the concentration of the drug in the wound, but it can also reduce the amount of medication and side effects.

During the treatment intervention, can also be combined with embolization, embolization is useful for blocking the blood supply to the tumor, the tumor will die because it's "hungry ". Cancer cells that have no blood supply, malnutrition, lack of oxygen, it will eventually die.

Treatment Of Planting Seed Particles

Particle seeding I125 is part of brachytherapy treatment. This method is a minimally invasive technique with I125 seed being entered into the lymphoma or metastases have happened on lymphoma. Seed Particles with low dose radiation issued continuously, then it will kill the cancer cells and cells of tumor hypoxia of various stadium nearby. Thus, can effectively treat tumours, as well as to prevent the recurrence and spread of the cancer.

Minimally invasive treatment is the latest cancer treatment methods results discussion of Modern multidisciplinary Oncology experts Cancer Hospital of Guangzhou, of whom there are methods of minimally invasive surgery, minimally invasive intervention, planting the seeds of the particle, warming, Radio Frequency Ablation, laparoscopic, minimally invasive and other advanced technologies that serve as one comprehensive treatment method, by combining primary and secondary condition of patients, and combines 1 or several types of treatment methods, based on the development condition of patients, improving the effectiveness of treatment. And in the end will prove to be, life expectancy and the chances of his recovery will increase dramatically.
