Overview

[Hemoglobin]] level of less than 12 g/dL, lactate dehydrogenase level higher than normal, blood serum albumin levels of less than 3.5 g/dL, and some genetic mutations, such as mutations in NOTCH2' are 'associated with a particularly poor prognosis among patients with splenic marginal zone lymphoma.

Prognosis

  • Poor prognosis[1]
  • Hemoglobin level of less than 12 g/dL
  • Lactate dehydrogenase level higher than normal
  • Blood serum albumin levels of less than 3.5 g/dL
  • Some genetic mutations, such as mutations in NOTCH2, are also correlated with shorter survival
