PURPOSE In this study we aimed to compare the flow cytometry (FC) results of patients with B cell lymphoma, T cell lymphoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, granulomatous inflammation and reactive lymph node and investigate the role of FC in malignant or non malignant conditions. METHODS Ninety patients were divided into 5 groups according to histopathology results. Patients were compared according to cy...

PURPOSE Primary intraocular lymphoma is a term that refers to nonmetastatic malignant lymphoid neoplasia that arises primarily within the eye. Primary vitreo-retinal lymphoma (PVRL), a subtype of primary intraocular lymphoma that comprises at least 85% of cases, provides a therapeutic challenge because of its diverse clinical presentations and variable clinical course. One of the currently avai...

Intraocular cytokines are promising diagnostic biomarkers of vitreoretinal lymphoma. Here, we evaluate the utility of IL-10, IL-6 and IL-10/IL-6 for discriminating lymphoma from uveitis and report the effects of intraocular methotrexate and rituximab on aqueous cytokine levels in eyes with lymphoma. This is a retrospective case series including 10 patients with lymphoma and 7 patients with uvei...

Background:Lymphoma is a malignancy that occurs primarily in the lymph nodes. Lymphoma divided into 2 major parts, namely: Non-Hodgkins (LNH) and Hodgkins (LH). About 85% of these malignancies are LNH. Epidemiological studies have found LH rare children under 5 years age relatively adults, but most common cancer among aged 15-19 years. Computed Tomography Scan(CT-Scan) frequently used examinati...

Waldenstroms Macroglobulinaemia (WM) is a rare B-cell lymphoma representing ~2% of all haematological malignancies. While most neurological complications WM are secondary to the overproduction Immunoglobulin M (IgM), Bing-Neel Syndrome (BNS) an extremely direct Central Nervous System (CNS) infiltration by malignant Lymphoplasmocytic Lymphoma (LPL) cells. Limited information on BNS exists in lit...

neurolymphomatosis is a rare manifestation of non-hodgkin lymphoma characterized by infiltration of peripheral nerves, nerve roots, plexus and cranial nerves by malignant lymphocytes. this report presents positron emission tomography/computed tomography (pet/ct)imaging with 2-deoxy-2-18f-fluoro-d-glucose (18f-fdg) in 3 cases of non-hodgkin lymphoma with nerve infiltration, including one newly d...
