Lymphoma is one of the most common cancers diagnosed among the adolescent and young adult patient population, ages 15-39. A patient of this age range can walk into a pediatric oncologist鈥檚 office or an adult medical oncologist鈥檚 office and receive vastly different treatment for the exact same diagnosis.
Adolescents and young adults with lymphoma may encounter challenges different from those of their younger and older adult counterparts, some of which can include fertility preservation and navigating a diagnosis and treatment throughout school or work. This complex set of needs necessitates a specialized multidisciplinary approach to care.聽
