Treatment for lymphatic cancer can vary depending on the involvement of the lymph nodes and whether or not the cancer cells have spread through the individual's body and can be done with medications, when the cancer is first discovered, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or the junction from both.
Immunotherapy is also a form of treatment that is increasingly being used and includes the application of vaccines and antibodies to help the body fight cancer cells.
Lymphatic cancer is a type of cancer that affects the lymphatic system, responsible for the body's defenses, which is located in the lymph nodes or in the lymph nodes that are scattered throughout the body, which can cause symptoms such as enlargement of these lymph nodes.
According to INCA, National Cancer Institute, this type of cancer can have a percentage of chances of cure varying from 30 to 70%, depending on factors such as the health status of the individual, the presence of other diseases involved, age, style of life and severity of the tumor.
Thus, the patient who was diagnosed early and started treatment as soon as possible can cure lymphatic cancer, although the next 2 years are decisive, because it is at this stage that cancer is more likely to return.
