Immunophenotype evaluation of Non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas

Pediatric Non Hodgkin’s Lymphomas

Immunophenotype, histopathology and clinical stage: their predictive value in the prognosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.

The relationship between immunophenotype, histopathology and clinical stage in influencing prognosis was evaluated in 99 cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). All cases were histopathologically classified according to the system of the international conference on working formulation (WF), immunologically analysed by flow cytometry with a panel of monoclonal antibodies and clinically staged by ...

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...

Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma presenting as Garcin’s Syndrome

An 80 year old man presented with a twelve month history of progressive multiple unilateral cranial nerve palsies. A gadolinium enhanced MRI scan of his head and neck was performed. 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...

Sinonasal lymphomas in Indonesia: immunophenotype and Epstein-Barr virus association

Sinonasal lymphoma is a rare disease with NK/T-cell (NKTC) or B-cell immunophenotype. Previous study revealed the geographic difference in frequency of NKTC lymphoma (NKTCL) and almost constant association with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Through review of 41 cases with sinonasal lymphoproliferative diseases registered in the Department of Anatomical Pathology, University of Indonesia d...

Primary non-Hodgkins lymphoma of the parotid gland.

UNLABELLED Primary malignant lymphomas in the salivary glands are relatively rare. Clinical presentation is not characteristic and the disease is often overlooked resulting in diagnosis and treatment delays. AIM To stress the importance of the diagnostic process and combined management, we present a series of eight patients with malignant lymphoma of the parotid who were diagnosed only after ...
