Overview

According to the Lugano classification, there are four stages of follicular lymphoma based on the number of nodes and extranodal involvement.

Staging

Staging for follicular lymphoma is provided in the following table:[1]

Revised staging system for primary nodal lymphomas (Lugano classification)
Stage Involvement Extranodal (E) status
Limited
I One node or a group of adjacent nodes Single extranodal lesions without nodal involvement
II Two or more nodal groups on the same side of the diaphragm Stage I or II by nodal extent with limited contiguous extranodal involvement
II bulky* II as above with "bulky" disease Not applicable
Advanced
III Nodes on both sides of the diaphragm; nodes above the diaphragm with spleen involvement Not applicable
IV Additional noncontiguous extralymphatic involvement Not applicable
