Hodgkin lymphoma transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia: cases report and discussion
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) is the most common form of leukemia affecting adults in Europe and North America. Large B-cell lymphoma known as Richter's syndrome (RS) may develop approximately in 3-15 % patients. Furthermore, other hematological malignancies may also occur as RS variants, among them-Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). CLL/SLL transformation into HL...
متن کاملHodgkin 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.

متن کاملRichter transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia presenting as a dural-based non-hodgkin lymphoma mass.
Richter transformation is defined as a diffuse large cell lymphoma, occurring by transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We present a 64-year-old man with a history of CLL and a left parieto-occipital transtentorial extra-axial mass. The patient underwent CT and MR imaging, demonstrating a large dural-based mass with extracranial extension, which occluded the left transverse sinus...
متن کاملLarge cell lymphoma transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma. A flow cytometric analysis of seven cases.
We studied 7 cases of large cell transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) immunophenotyped by multiparameter flow cytometry. The 6 women and 1 man ranged in age from 45 to 91 years. All had previous or concurrent evidence of CLL/SLL. Morphologic features and sites of involvement of the diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) were heterogeneous; 2 cases h...

He was also found to have a white blood cell count of 45.8 3 10/mL and palpable axillary, cervical, and inguinal lymph nodes. The blood was sent for flow cytometry and demonstrated a population of small CD19 B cells that were l light chain restr...
