B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphomas and most non-Hodgkins lymphomas. They are often divided into indolent (slow-growing) lymphomas and aggressive lymphomas.
DIFFUSE LARGE B-CELL LYMPHOMA OVERVIEW
Lymphoma is a cancer of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell.
Alternate Names : B-cell lymphoma, High-grade B-cell lymphoma, Small noncleaved cell lymphoma
Definition
Burkitt lymphoma is a very fast growing form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is by far the most common, accounting for 31% of cases. Although some NHLs are very indolent in nature, DLBCL is considered an aggressive lymphoma.
B-cell lymphoma A type of cancer that forms in B cells (a type of immune system cell). B-cell lymphomas usually occur in adults and may be either indolent (slow-growing) or aggressive (fast-growing).
B-cell Lymphomas: A large group of lymphoma sub-types that are composed of malignant T-cells with features of B-lymphocytes.
B-Cell Lymphomas
Common types of B-cell lymphoma include:
Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBLC). DLBCL is the most common type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, accounting for about 30% of all NHL cases.

B-cell lymphomas can also involve the skin, with Hodgkin's disease being the most common. B-cell lymphoma involvement of the skin is usually manifested by the development of one or more red-brown nodules.

There are two main types of lymphocytes: the T cell and the B cell. Lymphomas develop from these two types. B-cell lymphomas are more common among adults, while among children, the incidence of T- and B-cell lymphomas are almost equal.

Treatment options for recurrent Burkitt lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma include:
Combination chemotherapy.
