Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the second most common type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), accounting for 20-30% of cases. FL typically has a long natural history and often responds well to initial therapy, however, relapses are common and remission times become shorter with successive treatments. Few patients, if any, are cured and most patients die within 8–10 years of diagnosis.
