Tumours of Lymphoid Tissue

Tumours of Lymphoid Tissue

TUMOURS of Iymphoid tissue can provide some of the most difficult problems in diagnosis for the surgical pathologist. The difficulty is often not only classification but the recognition of tumours from the varied responses of lymphoid tissue to various disease stimu,li. Many pathologists will, therefore, welcome a monograph, which is based on a review of 410 cases seen at the Westminster Hospit...

Malignant Soft Tissue Tumours

Introduction Tumours of soft tissue are mostly benign lesions of connective tissue in children. A number of aggressive malignant tumours that require multimodal therapy do occur, however, usually including surgical management. These malignant soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) are relatively rare in childhood, contributing approximately 5–8% of childhood malignancies (approximately 850–900 children an...

Tertiary lymphoid tissue

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes influence colorectal cancer progression. We have recently documented that tertiary lymphoid tissue in the colorectal cancer microenvironment orchestrates lymphocyte infiltration and that tertiary lymphoid tissue and lymphocytes cooperate in a coordinated antitumor immune response to improve patient outcome. Thus, tertiary lymphoid tissue represents a potential tar...

A model for other countries? Politicians and concerned citizens in other countries will observe Germany’s movements closely, as it is the first example of a high technology country turning its back on nuclear energy after using it for more than half a century. Around the world, many old and new users of nuclear reactors are sticking to their plans and policies, only adding a safety inspection h...
