background and objectives: human herpes 6 virus (hhv-6) could remain latent and chronic in the host cells after primary infection. hhv-6 genome encodes certain trans activation proteins which may results in development of malignantlymphoma. the association of human herpes six virus (hhv-6) infection and hodgkin and non-hodgkin lymphomas is strongly supported by epidemiological studies. the aim ...

non-hodgkin lymphoma usually presents with generalized lymphadenopathy, but it can also involve any part of the human body. lymphomatous involvement of muscles is a rare presentation and has been reported to occur in only 1.1% in non-hodgkin lymphoma. here we, present a 32 year-old iranian man with primary involvement of spleen, bone, bone marrow and muscle, mimicking soft tissue sarcoma; core ...

  Primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the larynx is rare, accounting for less than 1% of all laryngeal neoplasms. Fewer than 100 cases have been reported in the literatureand to our knowledge this may be the first reported case of laryngeal non Hodgkin lymphoma presented with hoarseness, aortic aneurysm, hepatitis B and skin rashes.

A case of ataxia telangiectasia in a 7 year-old boy associated with Hodgkin disease was presented. Abnormalities of motion along with repeated respiratory tract infections requiring hospitalization started when he was 2 years old. The patient was placed on MOPP protocol Hodgkin treatment in addition to replace­ment therapy as advised. 

lymphomas are solid malignant tumors having a wide spectrum of clinical and pathological features. non-hodgkin’s lymphoma (nhl) is a subtype of lymphoma with two-thirds of the cases presenting as lymph node enlargement. the remaining one third of nhl cases has been reported in the extranodal sites, including the gastro intestinal tract, waldeyer’s ring, bone, skin, and brain. intraoral non-hodg...

BACKGROUND Hodgkin lymphoma is uncommon in the U.S. general population; however, Hodgkin lymphoma risk is elevated in people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Thus, despite the low HIV prevalence in the United States, the HIV epidemic may have contributed substantially to the general population burden of Hodgkin lymphoma. METHODS We used data from 14 U.S. cancer registries in...

BACKGROUND Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) is responsible for chronic, acute, and fulminant hepatitis, which are prevalent worldwide. Chronic HBV may lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Several epidemiological studies have indicated that hepatitis B virus is involved in B-cell Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL). OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between ...
