A member asked:
Is intravascular lymphoma hereditary?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessarily: This is a very rare form of lymphoma and it is not necessarily hereditary. If you had a family member with lymphoma, the best thing to do is to look at your family history and see if there are any other cancers in your first degree relatives. If not, then this lymphoma was likely sporadic. If there are others with a family history, you can go for genetic counseling.
