In the human body contains not only blood, but also the so-called "white" vessels. They were known for a long time, and in the middle of the 18th century knowledge of the lymphatic system become more extensive. Unfortunately, uncommon lymphoproliferative disease and they can occur in any organ.

Lymphatic system

It performs in the functioning of a person is quite important role: because the lymphatic system is the transportation of nutrients, removes excess interstitial fluid. Another important ability – providing immunity. The fluid which performs these tasks is called lymph. It has transparent color, composition dominated by lymphocytes. The smallest structural unit of the system are the capillaries. They go into vessels that are both intraorganic and unorganise. Their structure includes valves that prevent backward flow of liquid. The largest lymphatic vessels are called collectors. That they accumulated liquid from internal organs and other major body parts. Another component, which has the lymphatic system (photo is below) – sites. This round of education, which have different diameters (from polukilometre to 5 centimeters). They are located in groups on the path of vessels. Main function-filter lymph. Here she is cleansed of harmful microorganisms.Lymphatic system. Photo

Lymphatic organs

Part of the lymphatic system are also the following organs: tonsil, thymus gland (thymus), spleen, bone marrow. Lymphocytes formed in the thymus are called T cells. They feature a continuous circulation between the lymph and blood. Particles that are formed in the bone marrow are called b-cells. Both after ripening are carried throughout the body. B-cells remain in lymphoid organs. Their migration stops. In the abdominal cavity is another major organ that is an integral part of the lymphatic system – the spleen. It consists of two parts, one of them (white pulp) generates antibodies.Lymphoproliferative disorders

This group of diseases in the proliferation of lymphocytes. If changes occur in the bone marrow, then used the term "leukemia". Tumors of the lymphatic system that occur in the tissue outside the bone marrow, are referred to as lymphomas. According to statistics, most often these diseases occur in older patients. In men this diagnosis is found in greater degree than in women. This disease is characterized by lesion of the cells, which eventually begins to grow. Distinguish low, medium and high level that characterizes the malignant process.

Possible causes

Among the causes that can cause limfoproliferativee disease, secrete a specific group of viruses. Also not the last role is played by the factor of heredity. Skin disease that last for a significant time (e.g., psoriasis) can trigger the growth of malignant tumors. And, of course, significantly affects the process radiation. Radiation, certain allergens, toxic substances stimulate the process of proliferation of cells.

Lymphoma. Diagnostics

Specialist prescribes a full examination, blood test for cancer cells, diagnosis of internal organs. For more informative a biopsy is required. Under the microscope, the affected cells have a specific type.

Lymphoma Treatment

Methods of treatment of this disease the following. To destroy tumors use chemotherapy or radiotherapy (x-rays). Use a combination of drugs distributed in the body and can also destroy those cells that failed to diagnose. After chemotherapy affects the bone marrow, so you may have his transplant. Carry it as from the donor material, and directly from their own bone marrow of the patient (pre-extracted prior to appointments). Lymphoproliferative disease amenable to biological treatment, but it is mostly experimental in nature. Based on the use of substances that are synthesized from the cells of the patient. To achieve a good resultyou must carefully follow the instructions of the attending doctor, in order to take the drugs, to pay due attention to nutrition.Tumors of the lymphatic system

The Disease is characterized by change hematopoietic cells, wherein the substitution of the healthy elements of the bone marrow to the affected. In the blood significantly increases the level of lymphocytes. Depending on which cell was reborn, secrete disease lymphocytic leukemia (changes of lymphocytes), myeloid leukemia (myelocytes affected). To determine the type of disease under the microscope and analysis of protein. Lymphoproliferative disorder (what it is described above) has in this case two forms of occurrence: chronic and acute. The last is pretty hard. In this case, you need immediate treatment, because the cells are immature and do not able to perform their functions.
