Lymphoma is a cancer (malignancy) of the lymphatic system (lymph nodes).
The lymphatic system brings a special type of white blood cells called lymphocytes through a network of tubular channels (lymph vessels) throughout the body tissues, including bone marrow. The spread of this network is a collection of lymphocytes in lymph nodes called lymph nodes.
Malignant lymphocytes (lymphoma cells) can be unified into a single lymph nodes or may spread throughout the body, even in almost all organs.
Two main types of lymphoma are Hodgkin's Lymphoma (more often called Hodgkin's Disease) and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Burkitt's lymphoma and mycosis fungoides are included in this type of Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
Hodgkin's disease (Hodgkin lymphoma) is a type of lymphoma are distinguished by certain types of cancer cells, called Reed-Stenberg cells, which have a distinctive appearance under the microscope. Tues Reed-Sternberg has a large malignant lymphocytosis greater than one nucleus. The cells can be seen in biopsies taken from lymph node tissue, which is then examined under a microscope.
