| Summary: | Hodgkin's lymphoma, formerly known as Hodgkin's disease, is a type of cancer of the lymphatic system, an important part of the site where immune processes take place. The disease can affect people of any age, but it is much more common in the age range of 20-40 years and in people over 55 years old. In Hodgkin's lymphoma, cells in the lymphatic system multiply uncontrollably and can spread outside of it. Advances in the diagnosis and treatment of Hodgkin's lymphomas present a chance for patients to achieve a complete remission of this type of cancer. The prognosis is constantly improving for people with this diagnosis. This article will present the case of a 27-year-old patient with classic Hodgkin's lymphoma - histological subtype mixed cellularity - chemorefractory. |
