About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma” by Luis Fayad, MD.

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about Non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL), a type of cancer that originates in the lymphatic system, which is part of the bodys immune system. It is characterized by the abnormal growth and multiplication of lymphocytes, which are white blood cells that help fight infections in the body.

NHL can develop in any part of the lymphatic system, including lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow, and other organs. It can be classified into various subtypes based on the type of lymphocyte involved, the location of the cancer, and other factors.

The exact cause of NHL is not fully understood, but certain risk factors such as age, weakened immune system, exposure to certain chemicals, radiation, and certain infections such as HIV and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) may increase the likelihood of developing the disease.

Symptoms of NHL may include swollen lymph nodes, fever, night sweats, fatigue, unexplained weight loss, and pain or swelling in the abdomen. Treatment options for NHL depend on the type and stage of the cancer, but may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, or stem cell transplant. Prognosis and survival rates vary depending on the subtype and stage of the cancer.

Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHL) are a heterogeneous group of malignant lymphomas. There are many different subtypes, every few years the classification is updated. Today, morphology, immunophenotype, molecular, cytogenetics, and other techniques are used for diagnosis. Treatment generally depends on the aggressiveness of the disease (indolent, aggressive, or very aggressive) Current ICD-9-CM diagnosis code range 200.0_ – 200.8_ and 202.0_ – 202.9_
Slide 3-

Behavior Indolent – these lymphomas grow slowly. The majority of NHLs are considered indolent. Indolent lymphomas are generally considered incurable with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. Aggressive – these lymphomas have a rapid growth pattern. This is the second most common form of NHL and are curable with chemotherapy. Very Aggressive – these lymphomas grow very rapidly. They account for a small proportion of NHLs and can be treated with chemotherapy. Unless treated rapidly, these lymphomas can be life threatening.

Marginal Zone Lymphoma Indolent Currently codes to 202.8_ Accounts for ~10% of all lymphomas Subcategories MALT (XRT?) Nodal Extra Nodal Splenic
Slide 7-

Mantle Cell Lymphoma Aggressive Currently codes to 202.8_ Accounts for ~ 6% of all lymphomas Considered “incurable” with traditional RX Stem cell transplant is offered often as front-line consolidation treatment in “younger” patients
Slide 8-

Primary CNS Lymphoma Aggressive Currently codes to 202.8_ Accounts for ~ 1-2% of all lymphomas Different chemotherapy treatments Often requires radiation to the brain: Brain dysfunction in younger patients Dementia in older patients
Slide 9-

Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL) Aggressive Currently codes to 202.8_ Accounts for ~ 2% of all lymphomas Two groups: ALCL ALK-1+ better prognosis, more common in younger patients and children ALCL ALK-1-negative : as bad as any other T-cell lymphoma
Slide 10-

Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma Aggressive Currently codes to 202.8_ Accounts for ~ 7% of all lymphomas Worse prognosis, often associated with extranodal presentation Often requiring salvage treatment and transplant
Slide 11-

Large Cell Lymphoma Very Aggressive Currently codes to 200.0_ Accounts for ~ 31% of all lymphomas
