Lymphomas are a family of cancers that develop when immune-system cells called lymphocytes become cancerous (malignant). Lymphomas are divided into two general types: Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.

Memorial Sloan-Kettering specialists treat more than 450 lymphoma patients each year and see more than twice that number in consultation.
