Can you observe low grade follicular lymphoma if the involved node(s) have been surgically removed?

There are certainly circumstances where observation for limited stage, low grade follicular lymphoma is warranted. I would not rely on surgical resection alone for cure however. Occasionally surgery can be curative in Stage I extranodal MALT lymphoma.
