A client is suspected of having Hodgkin lymphoma. Which of the following assessment findings would confirm Hodgkin lymphoma rather than non-Hodgkin lymphoma?

A) Noncontiguous nodal spread
B) Superficial lymphadenopathy and pathologic fractures
C) Pruritus and night fevers
D) Poor humoral antibody response


Ans: C
Feedback:
Pruritus and intermittent fevers associated with night sweats are classic symptoms of Hodgkin lymphoma. Noncontiguous nodal spread, superficial lymphadenopathy, and poor humoral antibody response are all manifestations of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Multiple myeloma clients experience increased bone resorption, which predisposes the individual to pathologic fractures.
