Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

(DLBCL): Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a type of cancer that originates in the body's lymphatic system. DLBCL is the most common type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, accounting for approximately one-third of all diagnosed cases. It usually appears as a single large lymph node, but can spread to other lymph nodes, the spleen, liver, and other organs. Its symptoms often include unexplained weight loss, night sweats, and fatigue. Treatment typically involves a combination of chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and radiation therapy with curative intent. DLBCL is typically curable when treated correctly with the right combination of therapies.
