[Ultrastructure of malignant non-Hodgkin lymphomas]
Abstract:
Ultrastructural characteristic features of non-Hodgkin malignant lymphomas-based on the analysis of 51 cases are dealt with. It is concluded, that ultrastructural changes of lymphomas can be correlated with the light microscopic findings and tumours arising from T and B cells can be distinguished also on the ultrastructural level. Electron microscopy should be regarded as an additional method in classification and differential diagnosis of non-Hodgkin malignant lymphomas. It contributes to a more exact diagnosis and clarifying the histogenesis of these tumours.

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...
Primary Lymphoid Organs
The red bone marrow is a soft, spongy tissue nestled in the interior of long bones such as the humerus and femur. It is the site...
Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
Detailed Structure and Function of Lymph Nodes
From a histological perspective, lymph nodes can be split into two main areas: the superficial cortex and the deep medulla. The outer cortex is populated by dendritic cells, macrophages, and B lymphocytes, which are densely packed into follicles. When these B-lymphocytes are presented...
