Hodgkin lymphoma transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma.
Transformation to a large cell lymphoma may occur during the course of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) in approximately 5% of the cases. This is known as Richter's transformation. A much less frequent transformation to Hodgkin lymphoma may occur. We report a case of CLL/SLL in which a transformation to Hodgkin lymphoma occurred, and we review previously publish...

متن کاملSecondary CD5+ diffuse large B-cell lymphoma not associated with transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (Richter syndrome).
Few cases of secondary CD5+ diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that are not Richter syndrome have been reported previously. We report 9 cases of non-Richter syndrome secondary CD5+ DLBCL. Among 529 cases of DLBCL, 38 (7.2%) were CD5+ DLBCL, including 9 of secondary CD5+ DLBCL. Five cases gained CD5 expression during the clinical course of DLBCL (group 1). Three cases showed transformation fr...
