Hi, I'm going through FA rapid review p.527.

The diagnosis for "A 10yr boy presents with B symptoms. Examinations shows an ant. mediastinal mass" is stated NHL. However, Hodgkin lymphoma seems to be a more reasonable answer for this one regarding his age and symptoms. Can anyone explain why the answer is NHL?
