Over 30% of patients with splenic marginal zone lymphoma express the same immunoglobulin heavy variable gene: ontogenetic implications
We performed an immunogenetic analysis of 345 IGHV–IGHD–IGHJ rearrangements from 337 cases with primary splenic small B-cell lymphomas of marginal-zone origin. Three immunoglobulin (IG) heavy variable (IGHV) g...

Splenic marginal zone lymphoma proposals for a revision of diagnostic, staging and therapeutic criteria
Since the initial description of splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) in 1992, an increasing number of publications have dealt with multiple aspects of SMZL diagnosis, molecular pathogenesis and treatment. Th...

A comprehensive genetic and histopathologic analysis identifies two subgroups of B-cell malignancies carrying a t(14;19)(q32;q13) or variant BCL3-translocation
The biologic and pathologic features of B-cell malignancies bearing a translocation t(14;19)(q32;q13) leading to a fusion of IGH and BCL3 are still poorly described. Herein we report the results of a comprehensiv...

Identification of circulating CD10 positive T cells in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma
In most cases of lymphomas with blood dissemination, the careful cytological analysis of peripheral blood smears provides a rapid orientation to diagnosis, even if the final subty** is achieved by histology ...

Cytogenetic analysis delineates a spectrum of chromosomal changes that can distinguish non-MALT marginal zone B-cell lymphomas among mature B-cell entities: a description of 103 cases
The purpose of this study was to document the frequency and distribution of karyotypic changes present at diagnosis in 103 non-MALT marginal zone cell lymphoma (MZL) patients. This cytogenetic analysis of a la...

Clinical, morphological and immunological study of 13 cases of canine lymphoblastic lymphoma: comparison with the human entity
The aim of this study was to set out the clinical, morphological and immunophenotypical presentation of 13 cases of canine lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL). LBL were diagnosed in dogs between 1 and 10 years of age...

Translocations involving the short arm of chromosome 17 in chronic B-lymphoid disorders: frequent occurrence of dicentric rearrangements and possible association with adverse outcome
Unbalanced translocations involving chromosome arm 17p, where the TP53 tumor suppressor gene localizes, are rarely described in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), but recent...

Mantle cell lymphoma: a retrospective study of 121 cases
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients represent a difficult problem, sometimes to establish the diagnosis but mostly because of their refractoriness to standard lymphoma treatments. Which treatments to apply and...

Burkitt’s lymphoma: Multiparametric analysis of 55 cell lines with special reference to morphometry
The term ‘Burkitt’s lymphoma’ (BL) connotes a specific morphologic appearance which has been well described [1]. However, the boundaries of this entity from other related B-cell lymphomas, especially the small...
