Why is the incidence of malignant lymphoma on the rise? This may be related to the following reasons: the increase of autoimmune diseases affects and promotes the malignant transformation of lymphocytes and tissues in the main immune system of human body; The level of identification and diagnosis of malignant lymphoma has been improved. After the average life expectancy is prolonged, the incidence of middle-aged and elderly people increases; Due to the increase in patients receiving various organ transplants and the increase in the use of various immunosuppressants, the immune system is dysfunctional; Some special infections, such as the increase of EB virus and HIV infection and environmental pollution. Malignant lymphoma is mainly characterized by painless lymphadenopathy, and can also be characterized by space-occupying lesions in various organs of the whole body. In addition, it can be accompanied by a series of systemic symptoms such as fever, weight loss and hyperhidrosis.
Although malignant lymphoma is also a kind of malignant tumor, some patients can be cured by correct treatment. Therefore, if you are unfortunately suffering from malignant lymphoma, you don't have to be overly afraid. So how can we cure it? First of all, correct pathological diagnosis is the key. Once a mass is found and suspected to be lymphoma, pathological biopsy should be performed as soon as possible, such as surgical resection of swollen superficial lymph nodes or fine needle aspiration to obtain deep lymph nodes or tissues in swollen parts of the body. These tests are safe and will not cause tumor spread and metastasis. After the correct pathological diagnosis, it is necessary to carry out staging examination. Some patients may ask: I have definitely diagnosed this disease, why do I have to do other tests? In fact, detailed staging inspection is also very important. Through these examinations, we can not only know the extent of tumor development, but also know the state of our bodies, such as the functions of heart, lung, liver, kidney and blood. This will help us to choose the appropriate treatment in the future. After completing all these tests, we need to choose a treatment plan. A correct first-line treatment plan, that is, the first treatment plan, is very important. If patients can receive standardized and reasonable treatment under the guidance of professional doctors from the beginning, then it is possible to obtain better results and minimize the chance of tumor recurrence. There are many options for the treatment of tumors, such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. For lymphoma, because it is a systemic disease, systemic chemotherapy should be preferred, and surgery or other treatment methods should not be preferred. The main purpose of our operation is to obtain pathology and make a definite diagnosis, rather than relying solely on surgical resection to achieve the purpose of cure. With the progress of science, great progress has been made in the treatment of lymphoma. One of the most important advances is the development of targeted therapy, which is also commonly known as "biological missile" therapy. Rituximab is the most widely used, which can specifically kill tumor cells without damaging normal cells. Combined with traditional chemotherapy, the treatment effect can be improved and more people can be cured.
Finally, we also want to emphasize that malignant lymphoma is a curable tumor, and we should have the confidence to overcome it. A good attitude is also very helpful for treatment. As long as you insist on timely treatment and regular review, you can completely return to normal work and life after treatment.
