Several subtypes of human malignant lymphomas are known to be highly associated with the Epstein-Barr virus. These include the Burkitt's lymphoma, opportunistic (immune deficiency-associated) lymphoma, nasal T/NK lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease pyothorax-associated lymphoma, cutaneous panniculitis-type lymphoma, and mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma. Improvement of histopathological technology, the demonstration of EBV-encoded small RNAs(EBERs), as well as the molecular virological methods, contributed much in the progression of such EBV-associated lymphomas.
