Because of their uncontrolled growth, Lymphomas can encroach on and/or invade neighboring tissue or distant organs.In Lymphoma, abnormal Lymphocytes travel from one Lymph Node to the next, and sometimes to remote organs, via the Lymphatic System.
While Lymphomas are usually confined to the Lymph Nodes and other Lymphatic tissue,they can spread to other types of tissue almost anywhere in the body. Lymphomia development outside of Lymphatic tissue is called extranodal disease.
