Abstract
Lymphomas, both Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's, are the most common hematological malignancy. Management of acute complications is fundamental in reducing the morbidity and mortality in lymphoma care. Oncologic emergencies for patients with lymphoma include symptoms and signs related directly to the disease and/or to the treatment; many organs may be involved including, but not limited to, metabolic, renal, cardiovascular, neurologic, hematologic, and infectious complications. This review will focus on the numerous approaches that are aimed at managing these complications.
