Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
It depends on type of malignant cervical lymphnode. It may be hodgkins or non hodgkins lymphoma or it is metastatic carcinoma. Treatment and survival depends on type and stage of cancer. Chemotherapy is treatment for lymphoma. For carcinoma primary cancer should be searched and take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
