Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma

Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is a rare subtype of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), accounting for ∼5% of all HL. Patients with NLPHL typically present with asymptomatic early stage disease with peripheral lymph node involvement. Unlike classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), late and often multiple relapses have been widely reported [1] but despite this, the prognosis is generally favourable with deaths due to NLPHL extremely uncommon.
