Mantle cell: Lymphoma has a broad range of expected survival. The minority of patients have an indolent course, and may not even require therapy at the time of diagnosis. More commonly treatment is initiated with moderate to aggressive chemotherapy with duration of benefit on the order of 3-5 years. With recurrence the management can be more challenging.
