This type of cancer
tends to spread in a fairly orderly way from one group of
lymph nodes to the next group. For example, Hodgkin's disease
that arises in the lymph nodes in the neck spreads first to
the nodes above the collarbones, and then to the lymph nodes
under the arms and within the chest. Eventually, it can spread
to almost any other part of the body. (Source: excerpt from What You Need To Know About Hodgkin's Disease: NCI)
What You Need To Know About Hodgkin's Disease: NCI (Excerpt)
Patients treated for Hodgkin's disease have an
increased chance of developing leukemia ;
non-Hodgkin's lymphoma; and cancers of the colon, lung, bone,
thyroid, and breast. Regular followup care ensures that
patients are carefully monitored, any changes in health are
discussed, and new or recurrent cancer can be detected and
treated as soon as possible. Between followup appointments,
people who have had Hodgkin's disease should report any health
problems as soon as they appear. (Source: excerpt from What You Need To Know About Hodgkin's Disease: NCI)
