Richter's transformation is a process where a slower-growing lymphoma changes into a more aggressive form of lymphoma. This transformation represents a significant change in how the disease behaves and progresses. When this transformation occurs, the lymphoma cells begin dividing faster and in a more chaotic way. This happens because of genetic mutations that cause cells to grow more rapidly and become more disordered, leading to a more aggressive form of the disease.
