Lymphomas are malignant diseases whose tumor cells originate from the lymphatic system. It is a disease related to leukemia, and it is also caused by a malignant change of lymphocytes and their uncontrolled multiplication.<span id=\"more-17577\"><\/span><br \/>\nLymphoma can develop slowly (indolent) or it can be aggressive. According to the type of tumor cells, they can be divided into two main (and very different) subgroups, Hodgkin\u2019s (HL) and non-Hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma (NHL) (although in some classifications, multiple myeloma and immunoproliferative diseases are also included here). There are over 50 different types of lymphoma, almost 90% of which are from the NHL group.<br \/>\nConsidering that lymphomas arise in the lymph nodes, one of the main symptoms is their increase. In addition, symptoms such as a temperature of more than 38\u00b0C without a known cause, night sweats, weight loss, malaise, cough and chest pain and skin itching are also characteristic.<br \/>\nFor successful treatment of lymphoma, it is necessary to diagnose the exact type of disease and determine the stage (I to IV). When choosing the type of treatment, the specialist hematologist takes into account the already mentioned type and stage of the disease, as well as the age and general condition of the affected person. As already mentioned, the most common treatment involves chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation, but sometimes immunotherapy, radiation and, very rarely, surgical treatment also have their place.<br \/>\nWe wish people who are fighting this malignant disease a lot of strength and a successful recovery, and one of the ways to help sick people is to register in the Croatian Bone Marrow Donor Registry, in addition to actions organized by the Ana Rukavina Foundation and in 8 transfusion centers: Zagreb, Osijek , Rijeka, Pula, Split, Zadar, Vara\u017edin and Dubrovnik.<\/p>\n<p>THE CURE IS IN US!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On September 15, we celebrate World Lymphoma Awareness Day.
