CancerIndex

CancerIndex is a research and information platform. It is not a physician, does not diagnose, and does not recommend treatment. Population statistics do not predict individual outcomes.

Every number links to its source and retrieval date. Derived metrics carry a formula version. AI-generated synthesis is not enabled in this phase; all content is database-grounded.

Definition

What this entity is

A lymphoma characterized by the presence of relatively few malignant cells called Reed-Sternberg cells and mononuclear Hodgkin cells that are admixed with nonneoplastic inflammatory cells. The malignant cells have a distinctive immunophenotype; they are positive for CD30 and CD15 and negative for CD3, CD20, and CD45.
