They are divided into Hodgkin’s with a predictable course and outcome and Non-Hodgkin’s, a conglomerate of malignancy with variable course and unpredictable prognosis. Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma can start from any lymph node in body even from bone marrow, liver and spleen. The cause is not known for all the subtypes.
