Symptoms of mesenteric lymphoma

The symptoms of mesenteric lymphoma may be mild and not obvious in the early stages, but once abdominal pain, bloating, weight loss, fever, unexplained nausea and vomiting, or even swollen lymph nodes occur, you should seek medical attention in time for relevant examinations to avoid delays in treatment.

Mesenteric lymphoma is a malignant tumor that occurs in the mesenteric lymph nodes. Common symptoms include abdominal pain, which is the most significant and early manifestation. It is generally intermittent or persistent pain, concentrated in the central or lower abdominal area. Abdominal distension and indigestion may be associated with symptoms, especially when lymphoma involves the digestive tract or peripheral organs. As the disease progresses, patients may also experience loss of appetite, significant weight loss, and even diarrhea or blood in the stool. Fever and night sweats are systemic symptoms, especially at night. Enlarged lymph nodes will cause abnormal palpation results in the abdomen or other parts. Some patients will also present with skin bruises or obvious anemia, because the tumor may affect the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow. In rare cases, if the tumor compresses other organs, it may also cause jaundice or decreased urine output.

If the above symptoms occur, you should see a doctor immediately, and if necessary, perform abdominal ultrasound, CT or lymph node biopsy and other examinations for further diagnosis. After diagnosis, treatment usually includes the combined use of multiple methods, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy as the main methods. Commonly used drugs include the CHOP regimen (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone), and targeted drugs such as rituximab (Rituximab) have significant effects. Surgical resection is suitable for patients with specific and limited sites, and it can improve symptoms while combining other adjuvant treatments. In daily life, the diet needs to be low in fat and high in protein, avoid greasy and irritating foods, and do a good job of psychological management and emotional regulation. Regular review is an important part of controlling the progression of the disease.
