Lymphomas are types of cancer that affect the immune system, specifically the lymphatic system. Lymphatic tissues are found throughout the body, including the lymph nodes, spleen, and lymphoid organs such as the tonsils and adenoids. Lymphoma occurs when the cells of the lymphatic system become abnormal and begin to multiply uncontrollably, forming tumors that can interfere with the functioning of the immune system.
