Malignant lymphoma occurred in 192 cases over 15 years, with Hodgkin's disease more common than non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Lymphocytic lymphoma was the most frequent non-Hodgkin's type, often well-differentiated.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Hematology
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Malignant lymphomas represent a significant group of hematological malignancies.
  • Understanding the incidence and subtypes of lymphomas is crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the incidence and epidemiological characteristics of malignant lymphomas over a 15-year period.
  • To detail the distribution of subtypes within Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
  • To investigate the occurrence and common sites of extranodal lymphomas.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of patient data over 15 years.
  • Classification of lymphomas based on established histological subtypes.
  • Calculation of incidence rates and proportional frequencies for different lymphoma types and subtypes.

Main Results:

  • Malignant lymphoma accounted for 4.1% of malignancies (192 cases).
  • Hodgkin's disease (57.3%) was more prevalent than non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (42.7%).
  • Within non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, lymphocytic lymphoma (30.21%) was most common, predominantly well-differentiated. Hodgkin's disease showed a high proportion of mixed cellularity (44.5%). Extranodal lymphomas occurred in 7.3% of cases, frequently involving the gastrointestinal tract (42.8%).

Conclusions:

  • Lymphoma incidence shows specific patterns in subtype distribution.
  • Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma subtypes have distinct epidemiological profiles.
  • Extranodal involvement, particularly in the GI tract, is a notable feature of lymphoma presentation.
