How fast do indolent lymphoma nodes grow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
They grow...: And they subside. Sometimes with no treatment. Relatively benign teatment now encourages some to offer retuxan based therapy. Focal radiotherapy has also been used. Growth rate is variable and usually survival +/- therapy is quite long..
