Overview

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Study of choice

B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphomas and most Non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

  • Excisional lymph node biopsy is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of B-cell lymphomas. It is the preferred method to protect the architecture of lymph nodes, which is crucial for pathological evaluation and classification of lymphoma.[1][2][3][4]
  • Fine-needle aspiration or core-needle biopsy specimens are usually insufficien because they have a low ratio of malignant cells and they do not sufficiently preserve the architecture of lymph nodes.
  • Diagnostic studies of B-cell lymphomas include light microscopic evaluation of pathologic sample, as well as an immunophenotypic analysis with immunohistochemistry to determine the subtype.
Diagnostic results
  • The following findings on pathological evaluation are confirmatory for Hodgkin's lypmhoma:[4]
    • Reed-Sternberg cells (RS)
    • Lymphocyte predominant cells (LP)
  • The following findings on immunophenotypic analysis are confirmatory for the following types of non-Hodgkin's lypmhoma:[5][2]
