Prognostic value of cellular proliferation and histologic grade in follicular lymphoma.
The clinical usefulness of histologic grading in follicular lymphoma (FL) is controversial and is further compromised by the subjective nature and poor reproducibility of most systems in current use. Therefore, we decided to objectively evaluate the importance of cellular proliferation in FL, along with the current grading systems. We studied 106 patients with FL who were uniformly staged and a...
متن کاملPrognostic value of chromosomal abnormalities in follicular lymphoma.
The t(14;18)(q32;q21) chromosomal translocation is observed in more than 75% of cases of follicular lymphoma. Several additional chromosomal abnormalities, which might contribute to tumor progression, have also been described. However, prognostic implications of cytogenetic features in follicular lymphoma have not been clearly established. In an attempt to correlate cytogenetic findings with cl...

متن کاملPrognostic factors in follicular lymphoma.
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is one of the most common types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. It is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage, for which many treatment options exist, however, no curative standard therapy has been identified. The outcome is highly variable with a median survival of approximately 10 years. The life expectancy of patients with FL has been extended with the use of rituximab, a ...
متن کاملCan histologic transformation of follicular lymphoma be predicted and prevented?
Transformation to aggressive lymphoma is a critical event in the clinical course of follicular lymphoma (FL) patients. Yet, it is a challenge to reliably predict transformation at the time of diagnosis. Understanding the risk of transformation would be useful for guiding and monitoring patients, as well as for evaluating novel treatment strategies that could potentially prevent transformation. ...
