Non-hodgkin's lymphomas iv. clinicopathologic correlation in 405 cases

Viral-related RNA in Hodgkins' disease and other human lymphomas.

Molecular hybridization with radioactively labeled DNA complementary to the RNA of the Rauscher leukemia virus was used to probe for homologous RNA in human lymphomas. 22 of 32 specimens contained RNA possessing homology to the RNA of the mouse leukemia virus, but not to that of the unrelated viruses causing mammary tumors in mice or myeloblastosis in chickens. Normal adult and fetal tissues fa...

Pediatric Non Hodgkin’s Lymphomas

Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma presenting as Garcin’s Syndrome

This showed an extra-axial enhancing lesion, which enveloped the hemi-mandible at the level of the left inferior alveolar nerve, and a dumbbell shaped lesion within the cerebellopontine angle. An incisional biopsy w...

Immunophenotype evaluation of Non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas

Background: Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHLs) is known as a heterogeneous group of malignant lymphoproliferative disorders. NHLs are classified into B cell and T cell types. Immunophenotypical assessment of the biopsy specimens can help diagnose NHLs.    Methods: In this study, 77 patients with B cell and T cell lymphoma were selected from Shahid Sadoghi hospital during 2010 to 2...

Peripheral T-cell lymphomas--clinicopathologic and immunophenotypic analysis of 25 cases.

The clinicopathologic and immunophenotypic findings of 25 cases of peripheral T-cell lymphoma in Korea were analysed. Seventeen cases (68%) of the 25 T-cell lymphomas presented in the extranodal sites including the nasal mucosa, tonsil, oral cavity, skin and rarely bone, mediastinum and breast. Immunologic studies showed that 12 cases (48%) of the lymphomas were of T-helper phenotype, 5 cases (...
