Primary mediastinal lymphoma: reports from the 19th European Hematology Association annual congress / 白血病·淋巴瘤

ABSTRACT

Primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) is a unique type of B-cell lymphoma probably arising from a putative thymic medulla B cell.It constitutes 6 ％-10 ％ of all diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL),with special pathologic features,immunophenotype and genetic abnormlities,and need to be identified with classical Hodgkin lymphoma and other types of DLBCL.In this review,the pathological features,molecular biological changes,treatment,prognosis and treatment of PET in the evaluation of the initial reaction in PMBCL were summarized.
