چکیده

It is well known that gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas are associated with Helicobacter pylori infection and have a good prognosis. However, although rare, these low-grade lymphomas transform to the high-grade diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) which are thought to be the important cause of death in patients with MALT lymphoma. We report two cases of DLBCLs in the cervical lymph nodes that occurred 10 years and 1.5 years after diagnosing low-grade gastric MALT lymphomas.

The gastric marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of MALT type.

Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma is a discrete clinicopathological entity arising in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) that has commanded increasing attention in recent years because of its unique pathogenetic, histologic, and clinical features.1-3 Two types of MALT can be identified in disparate organs that do not correspond to peripheral sites of the immune system. The native t...

miR-4284 and miR-4484 as Putative Biomarkers for Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small RNA, which can regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. MiRNA profiling has shown a great potential as novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. The present study was performed at the Nemazee Teaching Hospital (Shiraz, Iran) from 2011 to 2013.The aim of thi...
