The appropriate staging for malignant lymphomas continuous to be a matter of debate. In Hodgkin's disease the relative merits of different non-surgical procedures are becoming evident. Nevertheless some authors still advocate staging laparotomy with splenectomy in almost all patients up to stage III A disease. This procedure, however, seems already now questionable in many subsets of patients, which are in the process of being clearly defined. In spite of the complex nature of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, our current knowledge permits adapting the staging to the characteristics of the individual patients and to the therapeutic plan.
恶性淋巴瘤的恰当分期仍然是一个有争议的问题。在霍奇金病中，不同非手术程序的相对优点正变得明显。然而，一些作者仍然主张，对于几乎所有处于ⅢA期疾病以下的患者都进行分期剖腹术加脾切除术。然而，在许多正在被明确界定的患者亚组中，这一程序现在似乎已经存在疑问。尽管非霍奇金淋巴瘤具有复杂性，但我们目前的知识使我们能够根据个体患者的特征和治疗计划来调整分期。
