Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas can be slow-growing (low-grade) or rapidly growing (high-grade) cancer . For most patients, the cause is unknown, but lymphomas may develop in people with suppressed immune systems as a result of organ transplantation, for instance. The tumors are graded according to their level of malignancy (aggressiveness) low-grade, intermediate-grade or high-grade. Burkitt's tumor is an example of a high-grade lymphoma. Non-Hodgkin's tumors occur more frequently than

Joey's Web Page
Story of Joey, a boy from Tucson, diagnosed with Burkitts lymphoma (bcell leukemia) in September, 1999.
http://members.aol.com/joey891/joey.htm

Extractions: *** Last News Update 9/1/02 *** Click here to check out the latest update Joey Christensen is 8 years old. He's a curly top, loves Pokemon and Beanie Babies, is a Disney nut like his parents, has traveled to far off places like New Jersey, Chihuahua (Mexico), California and Florida, has an extremely creative mind, and has been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer known as Burkitt's Lymphoma . This disease is also called B-Cell Leukemia , and although it's fairly common in Africa, in America, only about 100 people a year are diagnosed with it. Of these, apparently the majority are young boys aged 2-11. Burkitt's is one of the most agressive cancers that a person can get - apparently it can regenerate itself in less than 36 hours in some cases. The disease is generally classified into four stages, Stage 4 being the most advanced. Fortunately, it is also very responsive to Chemotherapy treatments. On September 23, Joey went to the hospital with stomach pains, and a blockage was discovered in his large intestine. The doctors were very vague about what the blockage could be, and we had originally assumed that Joey had swallowed something he shouldn't have. As it turned out, a large malignant tumor had grown to the point where it was blocking digestion. The surgeons removed the tumor, and inserted a special double-tube called a Hickman Catheter into Joey's chest. This catheter has one end sticking out of his chest, and is used for administering Chemotherapy, and also for blood transfusions, IV fluids, and acquiring blood samples. It's been a godsend - Joey will seldom be getting pricked by a needle during this treatment, since everything can go through the Hickman.

http://www.lymphoma.ca/about_lymphoma.htm

Extractions: Multi-Media Library Cancer cells are descendants of a single normal cell in which genetic errors, or mutations, have occurred. In cells, genetic errors occur in the basic building blocks of DNA called genes. These errors may occur spontaneously or randomly when cells divide, or they may present themselves as a result of exposure to environmental toxins (carcinogens). Most of the time, your body will react and correct the problem without you ever knowing. Cells will detect and correct errors, or other genes will become activated and cause the mutated cell to die. The immune system will also recognize damage cells and kill them before tumors can form and cause problems. Because of all these factors, cancers are not thought to be the result of a single event. A combination of negative events and missed opportunities are required for cancers to form. Lymphoma is a type of cancer that can appear when an error occurs in the way a lymphocyte is produced. It encompasses a variety of cancers specific to the lymphatic system, an important network of glands and vessels which make up the body's immune system, our main line of defense against disease.
