Overview

B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphomas and most Non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Hodgkin's lymphoma may be classified according to the World Health Organisation classification system into 2 groups: nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma and classical Hodgkin lymphoma (includes nodular sclerosis classical Hodgkin lymphoma, lymphocyte-rich classical Hodgkin lymphoma, mixed cellularity classical Hodgkin lymphoma, and lymphocyte-depleted classical Hodgkin lymphoma). Non-Hodgkin lymphomas may be classified into several subtypes based on the World Health Organisation classification system.

Classification

B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphomas and most Non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

Most common

Five account for nearly three out of four patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma:[4]

Rare

The remaining forms are much less common:[4]
