What causes metastatic lymphoma and what are its symptoms?

1. Metastatic lymphoma The exact cause of lymphoma has not yet been fully discovered. It is generally acknowledged that some infectious factors may be associated with the onset of certain types of lymphoma. For example, lymphoma is the most common malignant tumor in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and the incidence rate is 60 to 100 times that of ordinary people.

2. The onset of Hodgkin's lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma and nasal NK cell lymphoma may be related to Epstein-Barr virus infection; HTLV-1 virus is closely related to adult T-cell lymphoma/leukemia; Helicobacter pylori is a possible cause of gastric MALT lymphoma; hepatitis C virus is related to splenic lymphoma; and psittacosis infection is related to the occurrence of ocular adnexal lymphoma.

3. Metastatic lymphoma refers to other parts of the primary lesions such as lungs, liver, kidneys, bones, etc. Now there is metastasis, which is also the time when the disease develops more seriously.

4. Lymphoma will have obvious symptoms such as lymph node enlargement in the early stage. Skin itching: This is a special manifestation of the early symptoms of Hodgkin's lymphoma. Alcohol pain: About 17% to 20% of the early symptoms of Hodgkin's lymphoma, 20 minutes after drinking, the lesion will be painful. Fever: The fever is irregular, continuous, or intermittent. A small number of patients suffer from periodic fever, about 1/6 of Hodgkin's disease patients. Early metastatic lymphoma can also invade the brain, meninges, cranial nerves or spinal cord, leading to increased intracranial pressure, mental disorders, cranial nerve paralysis or lower limb paralysis, sphincter incontinence, etc.
