Lymphoma: clinical photo of the neck of a patient with a non-Hodgkin's type lymphoma,a cancer of the lymph nodes. Lymphomas give rise to a broad spectrum of malignancy,different types carrying a variable prognosis. The enlarged lymph nodes are the typical symptom (as visible here),along with weight loss,fever & sweating. Treatment is with combinations of chemotherapy drugs,although radiotherapy may be used for localized disease.
