Summary

Aggressive B-cell lymphomas can appear in many extranodal sites, with up to 40% diagnosed outside lymph nodes. This review discusses distinctive features of these lymphomas based on their specific extranodal locations.

Area of Science:

  • Hematopathology
  • Oncology
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Aggressive B-cell lymphomas frequently present in extranodal sites, accounting for up to 40% of initial diagnoses.
  • While histologically similar, these lymphomas exhibit distinct clinical, cytologic, immunologic, and etiologic characteristics depending on the extranodal site.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the distinctive features of aggressive B-cell lymphomas in various extranodal locations.
  • To provide insights based on the Society for Hematopathology Fourth Slide Workshop on Extranodal Hematopoietic/Lymphoid Disorders.

Main Methods:

  • Review of aggressive B-cell lymphomas presenting in extranodal sites.
  • Focus on specific locations including mediastinum, breast, bone, skin, and body cavities.
  • Inclusion of intravascular lymphomatosis as a rare extranodal entity.

Main Results:

  • Histologic similarities exist across extranodal aggressive B-cell lymphomas.
  • Distinctive clinical, cytologic, immunologic, and etiologic features are associated with specific extranodal sites.
  • The workshop highlighted key differences in presentation and characteristics.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding site-specific features is crucial for diagnosing and managing extranodal aggressive B-cell lymphomas.
  • Extranodal involvement is a common presentation requiring specialized consideration.
  • Further research into the unique aspects of extranodal lymphomas is warranted.
