Clinical evolution, histologic type and general lymphographic picture in Hodgkin's disease
Abstract:
In 88 patients with Hodgkin's disease the clinical value of the general lymphographic picture (lymphodynamic aspects plus nodal patterns) is analysed. The survival times are also reported according to the different pre- and postlymphographic evolution. Histologic types and prelymphographic therapy are correlated with the general lymphographic picture. The predominance of foamy and/or spotty lymphographic patterns of lymph nodes as well as the lymphatic blockages have a severe prognosis (mean intervals between lymphography and exitus 8.3 and respectively 6.2 months). In such cases lymphocytic depletion represents the most frequent histologic type.

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...

Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
Detailed Structure and Function of Lymph Nodes
From a histological perspective, lymph nodes can be split into two main areas: the superficial cortex and the deep medulla. The outer cortex is populated by dendritic cells, macrophages, and B lymphocytes, which are densely packed into follicles. When these B-lymphocytes are presented...
Development of the Lymphatic System
The first lymph sacs to form are the paired jugular lymph sacs located at the junction of the internal jugular and subclavian veins. From these sacs, lymphatic capillary plexuses extend to the thorax, upper limbs, neck, and head, eventually forming lymphatic vessels. Each jugular lymph sac maintains a...
