ABSTRACT
Introduction: The mortality of patients due to lymphoma has increased in comparison with the last decade. Objective: Clinically and epidemiologically characterize patients with lymphomas treated in San Cristobal. Methodological design: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional and retrospective study was conducted between January 2007 and December 2017, which included all the patients treated (n = 65) in the oncohematology service of the General Teaching Hospital Comandante Pinares of the municipality of San Cristobal, in the Artemisa province. Results: The group of 60 and more was the most represented with 30 patients (46.2%), mean age of 55.8 ± 16.1 years. The male sex predominated with 20 patients (30.8%). In both types of lymphomas, the male sex was predominant with 10 (26.3%) with Hodgkin’s lymphoma and 20 (73.6%) with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Nodular sclerosis was the most frequent variant of Hodgkin’s lymphoma with 6 (35.3%) cases. Diffuse large cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma predominated with 9 (18.8%) cases. Stages IIA and I of Hodgkin’s lymphoma were the most frequent with 5 (29.4%) and 4 (23.5%) respectively. In patients with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma stage IIA was the most frequent with 13 (20%) patients. The lethality rate of lethality of NHL was 33.8 per 100 patients. Conclusions: The majority of patients presented non-Hodgkin lymphomas, with the male population over sixty years of age being the most affected. The most frequent stages of both varieties were the least advanced, generally of lymph node localization.REFERENCES
