Brief Answer:
Can be cured
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I have gone through the reports.
The patient is suffering from Non Hodgkin's lymphoma which is a cancer that originates in the lymphatic system, the disease fighting network spread throughout the body.
In non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, tumors develop from lymphocytes which is a type of white blood cell.
It is a fast-growing disease and needs to be treated quickly.
The current standard treatment is immunotherapy drug rituximab plus combination of chemotherapy drugs cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin ,vincristine and corticosteroids drug prednisolone (CHOP).
The disease is very responsive to treatment with a large percentage of people being cured.
Regards
DR DE
