Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is an uncommon type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). This T-cell lymphoma has several distinctive features that set it apart from the more common types of NHL. Most patients first complain of a rash over the body that causes intense itching. They also commonly have joint pains as well as blood abnormalities. These features are very uncommon in other lymphomas, and occur due to the overactivation of the immune system that regulates the normal body response to infections. Angioimmunoblastic lymphoma is also a fast growing lymphoma that frequently spreads to different body organs like the liver, spleen and bone marrow.

Hi Amit
Lymphadnopathy refers to enlargement of lymph nodes, and can be due to
several reasons, including lymphoma which is a cancer of lymph nodes.
Treatment depends on what is causing the lymph node enlargement – that can
be found out by doing needle tests (FNAC), biopsy, or other tests.
