title: Impact of treatment-related cardiac toxicity on lymphoma survivors: an institutional approach for risk reduction and management.
abstract: Despite improvements in treatment and overall survival rates, survivors of lymphoma may have long-term and late effects. Given the immense risk for cardiac disease after treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, healthcare providers should focus on prevention of secondary adverse effects. The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has been working to develop guidelines to address the cardiotoxicities that impact the lymphoma survivor population.
