Abstract:
The 2016 revision of the WHO classification of lymphoid neoplasms has been published. Although pathological analysis is necessary for the diagnosis of malignant lymphoma, genetic analysis has become increasingly important in recent years. The diagnosis of malignant lymphoma in the peripheral nerves and skeletal muscles is challenging; hence, diagnosis based on genetic profiles is desirable. In this article, previous studies on malignant lymphoma in the peripheral nerves and skeletal muscles are summarized. Common clinical findings, radiological characteristics, and genetic tests were reviewed.

Disorders of the Skeletal Muscle
Musculoskeletal disorders
Musculoskeletal disorders involve injuries and conditions affecting the skeletal muscles and associated connective tissues. These disorders can arise from acute biomechanical stresses or chronic overuse and can occur across different age groups. Common injuries include sprains, fractures, and muscular strains, often resulting from...

Nerves
The nerve is a bundle of axons that serves as the communication highway in the PNS. Each nerve is ensheathed in a protective layer of connective tissue called the epineurium. This outermost layer safeguards the nerve and supports the...
