Description
Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) is defined as any of a large group of cancers of the immune system. NHL's can occur at any age and patients
are often marked by enlarged lymph nodes, fever, and weight loss. There are many different types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which can be
divided into aggressive (fast-growing) and indolent (slow-growing) types and can be classified as either B-cell or T-cell non-Hodgkin
lymphoma. The guest editor has provided a thorough overview of this topic by having expert clinicians write about the diagnosis and
management of follicular lymphomas, marginal zone lymphomas, B-cell lymphomas, cutaneous T-cell lymphomas, and peripheral T-cell lymphomas.
State-of-the-art treatments are discussed, including novel chemotherapeutic agents, new biological agents, and immunologic strategies.
