TLDR
The revision clarifies the diagnosis and management of lesions at the very early stages of lymphomagenesis, refines the diagnostic criteria for some entities, details the expanding genetic/molecular landscape of numerous lymphoid neoplasms and their clinical correlates, and refers to investigations leading to more targeted therapeutic strategies.

Polatuzumab Vedotin in Previously Untreated Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

TL;DR: Polatuzumab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate targeting CD79b, which is ubiquitously expressed on the surface of malignant B cells as discussed by the authors .
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia: from genetics to treatment.

TL;DR: Next-generation sequencing of the coding genome has identified the most common somatic genetic alterations associated with the pathogenesis of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and how these genetic insights influence clinical management and the development of new therapeutic strategies for this disease is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extranodal NK/T Cell Lymphoma, Nasal Type (ENKTL-NT): An Update on Epidemiology, Clinical Presentation, and Natural History in North American and European Cases

TL;DR: The universal association of ENKTL-NT with Epstein-Barr virus across all ethnic groups suggests a common pathogenesis and the poor response of this neoplasm to anthracycline-based therapy is consistent across all geographic areas.

WHO Classification of Tumours of Haematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues

TL;DR: Thank you very much for reading who classification of tumours of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissues, and maybe you have knowledge that, people have look hundreds of times for their chosen readings like this, but end up in malicious downloads.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 2008 WHO classification of lymphoid neoplasms and beyond: evolving concepts and practical applications.

TL;DR: The criteria and significance of early or precursor lesions and the identification of certain lymphoid neoplasms largely associated with particular age groups, such as children and the elderly are addressed, and the issue of borderline categories having overlapping features with large B-cell lymphomas is reviewed.

Whole-genome sequencing identifies recurrent mutations in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia

TL;DR: The patterns of somatic mutation, supported by functional and clinical analyses, strongly indicate that the recurrent NOTCH1, MYD88 and XPO1 mutations are oncogenic changes that contribute to the clinical evolution of the disease.

MYD88 L265P Somatic Mutation in Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia

TL;DR: MYD88 L265P is a commonly recurring mutation in patients with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia that can be useful in differentiating WaldenStröm’s macrogalobulinesia and non-IgM LPL from B-cell disorders that have some of the same features.
