A.S. was recently diagnosed with Hodgkin disease and scheduled for a staging procedure. His previous axillary lymph node biopsy result was positive for Reed-Sternberg cells. The surgeon charted the results of the staging procedure as “stage I.”
What is the difference between Hodgkin disease and non-Hodgkin lymphoma? (Outline the primary difference, then outline the various pathophysiologic aspects of each disease., along with symptoms.)
What is the prognosis and predicted therapy for A.S. now that he has been diagnosed with stage I Hodgkin disease? (List the 5 year survival rate of Hodgkin disease and outline the treatment plan for Stage I Hodgkin disease. Also, explain how the treatment would differ if it is discovered that A.S. actually has Stage II disease.)
What side effects might A.S. expect from this therapy? (List at least 4 side effects.)

- A 19-year-old male visits his primary care physician with a sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and extreme fatigue. During the visit, the nurse finds that he has a fever. The patient reports that he is attending his second year of college at a local university. The physician performs a physical examination, which confirms large, swollen, painful lymph nodes. He decides to send the patient to the office laboratory for blood work. He orders a complete blood count (CBC) and viral and bacterial studies.

Yet these organs share some overall structural features, such as distinct T-cell and B-cell zones. One major difference between these organs is: The presence versus the absence of macrophages and dendritic cells Their function in bringing rare naive lymphocytes into contact with their specific antigen The ability of lymphocytes to enter the organ from the blood The mechanism by which antigens or pathogens enter the organ The ability of naïve T cells to be activated and proliferate in the organarrow_forward
