Are you looking to connect with others who have primary hepatic lymphoma?
Primary hepatic lymphoma (PHL) is a very rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that starts in the liver. It makes up only about 0.4 percent of extranodal lymphoma cases and 0.016 percent of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases.
Because it's so uncommon, you may find fewer people in the community with this specific diagnosis. However, many members understand the challenges of living with lymphoma and can offer support.
The most common subtype causing PHL is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), which accounts for 46 to 68 percent of PHL cases. Other less common types include:
* T-cell lymphoma
* Burkitt lymphoma
* Mantle cell lymphoma
If you're newly diagnosed or looking for information about PHL, feel free to share your experience. Others may have similar questions about symptoms, treatment, or managing this rare condition.
