Nodular lymphocyte-predominant hodgkin lymphoma or T-cell/histiocyte rich large B-cell lymphoma: the problem in "grey
1Department of Pathology, University of Maryland School of Medicine Baltimore, MD, USA.
Abstract:
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is a rare indolent B-cell lymphoma. However, its morphology can resemble T-cell/histiocyte rich large B-cell lymphoma (T/HRBCL), a subtype of more aggressive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. More and more studies suggest that these two entities are closely related. In this report, a 59-year-old man with nodal NLPHL and concomitant T/HRBCL in the bone marrow is presented, the current progress in our understanding of these two closely related B-cell lymphomas reviewed and the problems in the diagnosis and differentiation of NLPHL and T/HRBCL discussed.

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...

Disorders of Leukocytes
Leukopenia may result from bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. For example, conditions such as multiple myeloma and aplastic anemia can impair the bone marrow's ability to produce adequate leukocytes. Similarly, autoimmune diseases like lupus and viral infections such as HIV can prompt the immune system...
B Cell Activation and Differentiation
When naive B cells encounter a specific antigen that can bind to the B cell receptor (BCR) on their surface, they undergo sensitization to respond to the antigen's presence. Sensitization begins with...
