CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorder

CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorder is a type of abnormal growth of lymphocytes, which are a kind of white blood cell important for the immune system. The "CD30+" designation indicates the presence of a specific protein (CD30) on the surface of these cells. This disorder can lead to conditions such as lymphomas, where these cells multiply uncontrollably, potentially forming tumors. It may also be associated with other symptoms, depending on the extent of the disorder. Treatment often involves therapies that target these atypical cells to manage or eliminate the disease.
