Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), also known as non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is a group of blood cancers that includes all types of lymphomas except Hodgkin lymphomas. [1] Symptoms include enlarged lymph nodes, fever, night sweats, weight loss, and tiredness. [1] Other symptoms may include bone pain, chest pain, or itchiness. [1]
FL is the most prevalent form of indolent lymphoma, accounting for 70% of indolent cases and 20–30% of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases, with a yearly incidence of 1.6 to 3.1 per 100,000. [13] [15] It is most frequently diagnosed among people in their 50s and 60s, and is more common among white populations than black or Asian populations. [14]

Non-Hodgkin lymphomas, which are defined as being all lymphomas except Hodgkin lymphoma, are more common than Hodgkin lymphoma. A wide variety of lymphomas are in this class, and the causes, the types of cells involved, and the prognoses vary by type. The number of cases per year of non-Hodgkin lymphoma increases with age.
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, comprising about 6% of cases. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is named for the mantle zone of the lymph nodes where it develops. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The term 'mantle cell lymphoma' was first adopted by Raffeld and Jaffe in 1991.
Mature T-cell lymphoma is under the category of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Mature T-cell lymphomas account for 10% to 15% of all lymphomas and is more common in Asia than in Europe and America. [1] Its common subtypes include angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, anaplastic large cell lymphoma and peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified. [1]
Ann Arbor staging is the staging system for lymphomas, both in Hodgkin's lymphoma (formerly designated Hodgkin's disease) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (abbreviated NHL). It was initially developed for Hodgkin's, but has some use in NHL. It has roughly the same function as TNM staging in solid tumors.
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma refers to a group of T-cell lymphomas that develop away from the thymus [citation needed] or bone marrow. [1] Examples include: [2] Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas; Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma; Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type; Enteropathy type T-cell lymphoma; Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T ...
