Radiation therapy for localized duodenal low-grade follicular lymphoma
The aim of this study was to evaluate the initial treatment results and toxicities of radiation therapy for patients with early stage low-grade follicular lymphoma (FL) arising from the duodenum. We reviewed 21 consecutive patients with early stage duodenal FL treated with radiation therapy between January 2005 and December 2013 at the Cancer Institute Hospital, Tokyo. The characteristics of pa...
متن کاملIs watch and wait still acceptable for patients with low-grade follicular lymphoma?
Follicular lymphoma (FL) represents more than 20% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas worldwide and approximately 30% of the non-Hodgkin lymphomas diagnosed in the United States. Although occasionally localized at the time of diagnosis, most patients have disseminated disease. However, patients are frequently asymptomatic, and this, in combination with a long median survival, led to the initial studie...
متن کاملLow-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma: a rare condition with high proliferation
Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a type of high metastatic potential of the fibrosarcomas. Most of the time there is a long interval between tumor presentation and metastasis. We present 2 cases of LGFMS. The first is a 31-year-old female with a mass in anterior aspect of her left thigh, and the other is a 68-year-old female with mass in posterior of her neck. Both cases underwent opera...
متن کاملPrognostic value of cellular proliferation and histologic grade in follicular lymphoma.
The clinical usefulness of histologic grading in follicular lymphoma (FL) is controversial and is further compromised by the subjective nature and poor reproducibility of most systems in current use. Therefore, we decided to objectively evaluate the importance of cellular proliferation in FL, along with the current grading systems. We studied 106 patients with FL who were uniformly staged and a...
متن کاملCytomorphologic, immunohistochemical, and cytogenetic profiles of follicular lymphoma: 2 types of follicular lymphoma grade 3.
Follicular lymphoma (FL) grades 1 and 2 are regarded as a distinct disease entity, whereas data suggest that FL grade 3 might be an inhomogeneous tumor category. To define the biologic spectrum of FL, 89 follicular lymphomas were studied for their cytologic composition, antigen expression, mitotic and proliferation indices, cytogenetics, and clinical data. In contrast to the homogeneous appeara...
