Overview

Principles of Therapy

Medical management of lymphadenopathy depends on the underlying cause.

  • Antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals and antiparasitic medications are prescribed for infections due to bacteria, virus, fungi and parasites respectively.
  • Chemotherapy is instituted for those tumors that cannot be treated by surgery.
  • Radiation therapy is used in refractory tumors and metastatic tumors.
