Can Hodgkin lymphoma be cured?

Hodgkin lymphoma can often be cured. This is one of the encouraging facts about this type of lymphoma.

Hodgkin lymphoma is one of the two main types of lymphoma, which is a broad term for cancer that begins in cells of the lymph system. The other main type is non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). For non-Hodgkin lymphoma, the prognosis depends on the specific type, so the outlook is not the same for everyone.

What "often be cured" means for any one person depends on their own situation. Your healthcare team is the best source for information about what to expect in a specific case.
