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

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