Key takeaways
- Highly treatable — Hodgkin and many non-Hodgkin lymphomas have high cure rates.
- Diagnosis uses blood counts, bone marrow examination and immunohistochemistry.
- Long-term control — chronic myeloid leukaemia is often managed with daily oral therapy. Read more about CML treatment.
- Worth checking: unexplained fatigue, easy bruising, night sweats, painless swollen lymph nodes.
Lymphomas
Short answer: Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas are among the most curable cancers in adults, including at advanced stages. Treatment is typically systemic, and the regimen depends on the lymphoma subtype confirmed on biopsy and immunohistochemistry.
Leukaemias
Acute and chronic leukaemias require prompt, specialised care. Dr. Ramawat’s DM thesis evaluated induction outcomes in acute myeloid leukaemia patients treated with and without G-CSF support, and he has co-authored published work on hairy cell leukaemia and adult mixed phenotype acute leukaemia.
Myeloproliferative neoplasms
Conditions such as chronic myeloid leukaemia and related myeloproliferative neoplasms are often managed long term with oral targeted therapy, allowing many patients to maintain normal daily life while on treatment.
When to seek review
Persistent unexplained fatigue, recurrent infections, easy bruising or bleeding, drenching night sweats, unexplained fever, or painless swollen lymph nodes should prompt a blood count and a specialist review.

Frequently asked questions
Many blood cancers are curable, and Hodgkin lymphoma and several non-Hodgkin lymphomas have high cure rates even at advanced stages. Others, such as chronic myeloid leukaemia, are controlled long term with oral therapy rather than cured outright.
For most leukaemias and for staging certain lymphomas, a bone marrow examination gives information that blood tests alone cannot. It is done under local anaesthesia and is usually a day-care procedure.
Not always. Some chronic blood cancers are managed with oral targeted therapy, and a few indolent lymphomas are monitored under active surveillance before any treatment starts.
