Follicular lymphoma is a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which is a cancer of the lymphatic system. The most common age to be diagnosed with follicular lymphoma is 60-65. It's slightly more common in women than in men. We hope this information answers your questions.
The stage of follicular lymphoma indicates the extent to which the disease has spread and is important in choosing the best treatments and in estimating the prognosis of the disease. 1  Lymphoma spreads to lymph nodes as well as other organs in the body including the bone marrow. There are four stages of lymphoma which include: 1  Stage I - Only one lymph node (or lymph structure) is involved. 2  Stage II - Two or more lymph nodes (or lymph structures) are involved but only on one side (above or below) the diaphragm. 3  Stage III - Lymph nodes (or structures) on both sides of the diaphragm are involved.
