Lymphoma is a cancer that attacks a person's immune system. It originates in lymph nodes and leads to a tumor of the node. There are many types of lymphoma, including lymphoid leukemia.
Treating lymphoma is a delicate process, which usually requires extensive surgery. In severe cases, the surgery will remove the lymph nodes. This practice, however, is dangerous because the lymph nodes are critical for a person's immune system.
