How long can you live without treatment of lymphoma

How long can you live without treatment for lymphoma? How long you can live with lymphoma varies from person to person. Having lymphoma does not mean death. As long as it can be discovered early and effective and reasonable treatment plans are taken, cancer can be effectively controlled. Lymphoma patients should treat the disease with a good attitude and receive regular treatment as soon as possible. Lymphoma is highly heterogeneous, so treatment varies greatly.

1. Radiotherapy: Some types of lymphoma can be treated with radiotherapy alone in the early stages. Radiotherapy can also be used for consolidation therapy after chemotherapy and adjuvant therapy during transplantation.
2. Chemotherapy: Lymphoma chemotherapy is often combined with targeted therapy drugs and biological agents. In recent years, chemotherapy regimens for lymphoma have been greatly improved, and the long-term survival of many types of lymphoma has been greatly improved.
3. Bone marrow transplantation: For patients under 60 years old, medium- and high-risk patients who can tolerate high-dose chemotherapy, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can be considered. Some young patients with relapse or bone marrow invasion can also consider allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
4. Surgical treatment: limited to biopsy or complication management; for patients with hypersplenism and no contraindications, splenectomy can be performed if there are indications for splenectomy to improve blood counts and create favorable conditions for subsequent chemotherapy.
