Warthin tumor. B-lymphocytes within the lymphoid infiltrate

J Cossman et al. Arch Pathol Lab Med. 1977 Jul.

Abstract

The lymphoid stroma in Warthin tumor is predominantly composed of complement receptor B-lymphocytes. These lymphocytes are present in a pattern similar to that observed in reactive lymph nodes. The B-lymphocytes may be residual lymph node elements exhibiting reactivity directed toward the epithelial component of the tumor.
