B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas with Plasmacytic Differentiation
Abstract
B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas with plasmacytic differentiation are a diverse group of entities with extremely variable morphologic features. Diagnostic challenges can arise in differentiating lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma from marginal zone lymphoma and other low-grade B-cell lymphomas. In addition, plasmablastic lymphomas can be difficult to distinguish from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma or other high-grade lymphomas. Judicious use of immunohistochemical studies and molecular testing can assist in appropriate classification.
Keywords: Lymphoma; Lymphoplasmacytic; MALT; Nodal marginal zone; Plasmablastic; Plasmacytic; Splenic.
