The authors describe a case of histiocyte-rich B-cell lymphoma (HR-BCL), a variant of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, in a 51-year-old man. The patient presented with large axillary lymphadenopathy. Histopathologic and immunohistochemical examination of lymph node biopsy revealed diffuse effacement of the lymph node architecture by reactive histiocytes and neoplastic CD20 positive B cells. ...

malignant lymphoma may occur in the oral cavity and oropharynx, but is most commonly located in waldeyer's ring, particularly in the palatine and lingual tonsil. the occurrence of malignant lymphoma in the tongue is very rare. clinical features are nonspecific ulcerative lesions that do not heal. in the literature, the majority of cases are non-hodgkin’s lymphoma, diffuse large b cell type; how...

primary non-hodgkin lymphoma of liver is a very rare malignancy. here we report a case of primary hepatic burkitt’s lymphoma in a 34-year old man who was known case of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (aids) and presented with weight loss, abdominal pain, and fever. positive laboratory findings were mild anemia and elevated levels of lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) and alkaline phosphatase (alp)....

background : there are only a few reports that exist regarding primary non-hodgkin lymphoma of the genital tract. in this article, one case of primary b-cell type non-hodgkin lymphoma (nhl) of the cervix is presented. case history: a 45 year-old woman presented bloody vaginal  discharge. upon vaginal examination, the cervix was found to be enlarged. cervical biopsy revealed b-cell type non-hodg...

primary breast lymphoma represents less than 1% of all primary breast malignancies and most primary breast lymphomas are of b-cell origin. the association of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (alk) negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (alcl), a very rare form of primary breast lymphoma, with silicone-filled breast implants has been suggested and several case reports supported this proposal, especia...

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...

background epstein-barr virus (ebv) is a dna virus which belongs to the herpesviridae family and in γ-herpesvirus subfamily, has been infected about 95% of the world’s population. ebv is transmitted through saliva and associated with different disease such as infectious mononucleosis, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, burkitt`s lymphoma, hodgkin and non-hodgkin`s lymphoma. the study proposed to determi...
