The simplest way to describe the difference, is that acute lymphoblastic leukemia affects bone marrow, while lymphoma targets any organs within the lymphatic system. There are also many different types of lymphoma, but they're usually separated into 2 groups.... hodgkins disease, and non-hodgkins lymphoma (everything else)

Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymph nodes or other tissues in the lymphatic tissue such as the spleen or some cells in the stomach.

Leukaemia is a cancer of the cells which make blood cells. These cells are found in the bone marrow. One type of blood cell is called a Lymphocyte. The cells which make lymphocytes are lymphoblasts and a tumour of a lymphoblast is called a lymphoblastic leukaemia.

Lymphomas generally start in lymph nodes or collections of lymphatic tissue in organs like the stomach or intestines. They may involve the marrow and the blood in some cases. Lymphomas may spread from one site to other parts of the body. Lymphocytic leukemias originate and are most prominent in the marrow and spill over into the blood. They occasionally spread to involve the lymph nodes.
