The 2016 revision of the World Health Organization classification of lymphoid neoplasms

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.

Approach to dermal-based lymphoid infiltrates and proliferations.

TL;DR: A stepped histopathological approach is advocated for dermalbased lymphoid infiltrations, employing as key elements the general lymphocytic composition (relative B- versus T-cell ratio), coupled with the predominant cytomorphology (cell size) present.

B Lymphoblastic Leukemia/Lymphoma With Burkitt-like Morphology and IGH/MYC Rearrangement: Report of 3 Cases in Adult Patients.

TL;DR: 3 adult cases with lymphoblasts showing a precursor B cell immunophenotype, and isolated MYC/IGH translocation seem to represent a distinct biological phenomenon, in which a MYC translocation may be acquired at an immature stage of differentiation, thus manifesting features of both B-ALL/LBL and Burkitt lymphoma.

Role of MYC in B Cell Lymphomagenesis

TL;DR: This review will summarize the roles of MYC in B cell development and oncogenesis, as well as its significance for current B cell lymphoma classification, and compare communication networks within transformed B cells in different lymphomas affected by overexpressed MYC.
Journal ArticleDOI

A pattern-based approach to reactive lymphadenopathies.

TL;DR: The more precise the differential diagnosis established upon histopathological examination is, the more targetable and efficient the application of these techniques will be.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
