	'''Marginal zone lymphoma''' ('''MZL''') is a type of [[Non-Hodgkin lymphoma]] that affects [[B cells]]. It is named for the marginal zone of the [[lymph node]] where these cells are found. MZL is a slow-growing, or indolent, lymphoma. There are three types of MZL: extranodal MZL of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), nodal MZL, and splenic MZL.

'''Marginal zone lymphoma''' ('''MZL''') is a type of [[Non-Hodgkin lymphoma]] that affects [[B cells]]. It is named for the marginal zone of the [[lymph node]] where these cells are found. MZL is a slow-growing, or indolent, lymphoma. There are three types of MZL: extranodal MZL of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), nodal MZL, and splenic MZL.

==Types==
===Extranodal MZL of MALT===
[[Extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma]] or MALT lymphoma, is the most common type of MZL. It can occur in various parts of the body, including the stomach, lungs, eyes, and skin.

===Nodal MZL===
[[Nodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma]] is a rare type of MZL that occurs in the lymph nodes.

===Splenic MZL===
[[Splenic marginal zone lymphoma]] affects the spleen and the blood. It can also affect the bone marrow.

==Symptoms==
Symptoms of MZL can vary depending on the type and location of the lymphoma. They may include swelling of the lymph nodes, stomach pain, fatigue, and weight loss.

==Diagnosis==
Diagnosis of MZL typically involves a [[biopsy]] of the affected tissue. Other tests may include blood tests, imaging tests, and a bone marrow biopsy.

==Treatment==
Treatment for MZL depends on the type and stage of the lymphoma, as well as the patient's overall health. Options may include [[watchful waiting]], [[radiation therapy]], [[chemotherapy]], [[immunotherapy]], and in some cases, [[surgery]].

==Prognosis==
The prognosis for MZL is generally good, with many patients living for many years after diagnosis. However, the disease is often not curable and may require ongoing treatment.
