Open Questions in the Management of Nodular Lymphocyte Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma
Localized Nodular Lymphocyte Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma is a rare disease with an overall good prognosis but frequent late relapses. Due to it's rarity there is no standard therapeutic approach and pathological diagnosis may be hard. In this paper we discuss the technical aspects of the radiation therapy and histological issues. The new fields reductions proposed for classical Hodgkin lymphom...
متن کاملHematopathology / NODULAR LYMPHOCYTE PREDOMINANT HODGKIN LYMPHOMA
In our experience, certain commonly cited immunophenotypic features of nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) are not encountered in day-to-day practice. We reviewed 60 cases of NLPHL (18 women, 42 men; median age, 34 years) to discern immunophenotypic features from a large, single-institution cohort. All cases contained lymphocytic and histiocytic (L&H) cells. These cells expr...
متن کاملVII. Management of nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma.
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) accounts for about 5% of all Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) cases [1]. This entity differs substantially from the histological subtypes of classical HL (cHL) in terms of immunohistology, clinical presentation, and course. The B-cell marker CD20 that is only inconsistently found on Hodgkin and Reed–Sternberg cells in cHL represents a hallmark of the...
متن کاملXVIII. Management of nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma.
Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) represents only ~5% of Hodgkin lymphoma (~1.5 per 1000000 people per year) [1,2].Microscopically, NLPHL displays a nodular growth pattern, although a diffuse growth pattern with prominent histiocytes and T cells can be seen in advanced or recurrent cases. The malignant cells of NLPHL, referred to as LP or ‘popcorn cells’ because of their m...
متن کاملNodular Lymphocyte Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma of the Thyroid
Thyroid lymphomas are rare clinical entities that may result from either the primary intrathyroid de novo or secondary thyroid gland involvement of a lymphoma. Among these, the Hodgkin's subtype is quite uncommon, accounting for 0.6-5% of all thyroid malignancies. The authors report on a 76-year-old female presenting with a thyroid nodule that, upon surgical excision, was found to be a nodular ...
