What is lymphoblastic lymphoma?
Lymphoblastic lymphoma is a cancer of immature lymphocytes, cells of the immune system, called lymphoblasts. It is a form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Lymphoblastic lymphoma primarily affects children and accounts for about 35 percent of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas in children.
