A member asked:

For what length of time can lymphoma go undetected?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Months to years: Low grade lymphoma can exist in a solitary lymph node for years and after a period of time when no change noted and node persists, a bx can reveal low grade lymphoma. This excisional biopsy can prove to be curative.
