Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Hodgkin's disease is a rarely occurring form of lymphoma. Hodgkin's disease comprises less than one percent of all cancers diagnosed in the United States. The cure rate varies with the type of Hodgkin's disease. The majority of people who develop Hodgkin's disease are either younger adults or seniors. Men are more likely to develop Hodgkin's disease than women. In addition, occurrences are more likely in people with relatives who have Hodgkin's disease.
Some Risk Factors
The NCI reports that researchers have found certain risk factors that are more common in people diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease than those who are not. Among these risk factors is the exposure to certain environmental toxins. It is believed that viruses and bacteria may also play a role in contracting Hodgkin's disease.
Treating Hodgkin's Disease
Hodgkin's disease treatment hinges on several factors. Among these factors are the stage of Hodgkin's disease, the patient's age and general health, symptoms, and the status of the affected lymph nodes.
