Review

Mantle cell lymphoma

Stefano A Pileri et al. Haematologica. 2009 Nov.

Abstract

This perspective article by Drs. Pileri and Falini examines the diagnosis and bio-pathology of mantle cell lymphoma in the light of the criteria of the WHO Classification and recent reports. See related articles on pages 1555, 1563 and 1595.

Figure 1.
Schematic representation of the postulated steps of the pathogenesis of MCL, shown in conjunction with the main immuno-morphological findings. The red immunostain, corresponds to cyclin D1 determined by the alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase complexes technique. The naïve B-lymphocyte is stained for CD20 by immunoperoxidase. The examples of “classic” MCL and “blastoid” MCL are stained with Giemsa, while the “pleomorphic” one is stained with hematoxylin and eosin.
