Hodgkin’s Lymphoma

Book Appointment

Hodgkin’s lymphoma is a cancer that develops in the lymphatic system (part of the immune system that helps rid the body of toxins, waste and unwanted materials) of your body. It causes cells to grow abnormally and form tumours in parts of the body beyond the lymphatic system. As a result, if left untreated, it depreciates your body’s ability to fight infections.

When to seek expert advise

If you find any of the signs and symptoms associated with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, consult your family doctor. Based on the diagnosis, he/she may refer you to a specialist. Alternatively, you can consult the qualified staff of the Oncology service line​ at The Aga Khan University Hospital.​​​
