“…En la actualidad, existe un consenso de los LNH en niños, adolescentes y adultos jóvenes, que ha permitido clasificar y dirigir estrategias para cada grupo de pacientes 1 . Algunos tipos de tratamiento incluyen quimioterapia con esquemas como CHOP (ciclofosfamida, doxorrubicina [también conocido como hidroxidaunorrubicina], vincristina [Oncovin] y prednisona), más radioterapia, pero no mejoran la supervivencia, como se reportó en un grupo de 12 pacientes tratados en Perú, donde las causas de muerte fueron las infecciones relacionadas con la quimioterapia o la progresión de la enfermedad 8,9 . La talidomina, el interferón alfa y la ciclosporina son fármacos que se han empleado para mejorar los síntomas relacionados, que ocasionalmente pueden mostrar respuesta clínica 10 .…”
