Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (CD30+/Ki-1+). Analysis of 35 cases followed at GISL centres
1995
Between January 1988 and June 1992, 35 patients with primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL)CD30+ were referred to one of the institutions participating in GISL (Gruppo Italiano per lo Studio dei Linformi). 16 patients were treated with ProMACE-CytaBOM, two with MACOP-B, one with CHOP and one with LSA2-L2. As of November 1990, all newly diagnosed patients were treated with MOPP/EBV/CAD hybrid. 27 (77%) cases of ALCL CD30+ and 8 (23%) cases of Hodgkin's-related (HR) lymphoma CD30+ were diagnosed. Extranodal disease was present in 22 cases (63%), and 8 patients (23%) had primary bone marrow involvement. Twenty-three complete remissions (CR) (66%), six partial remissions (PR) (17%) and s…
Genome-wide DNA profiling of marginal zone lymphomas identifies subtype-specific lesions with an impact on the clinical outcome
2011
Abstract Marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (MZLs) have been divided into 3 distinct subtypes (extranodal MZLs of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue [MALT] type, nodal MZLs, and splenic MZLs). Nevertheless, the relationship between the subtypes is still unclear. We performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic DNA copy number changes in a very large series of MZL cases with the aim of addressing this question. Samples from 218 MZL patients (25 nodal, 57 MALT, 134 splenic, and 2 not better specified MZLs) were analyzed with the Affymetrix Human Mapping 250K SNP arrays, and the data combined with matched gene expression in 33 of 218 cases. MALT lymphoma presented significantly more frequently gain…
Farbduplexsonographische Messung der Lymphknotenperfusion: Ein Beitrag zur Diagnostik der zervikalen Metastasierung*
1993
The objective of this study was to find additional sonomorphological criteria for determining the status of enlarged lymph nodes. By using colour-coded duplex sonography the perfusion of 63 lymph nodes in the neck was analysed. The status was confirmed either histologically or clinically (29 metastases from squamous cell carcinomas and 34 acute or chronic inflammatory nodal diseases). A quantitative evaluation of the pulsatility measured in 51 lymph nodes by computing the Pourcelot-Ratio and the Mean Pulsatility Index yielded significant differences between the two groups. By definition of a limiting value of the Pourcelot-Ratio (0.75) for the prediction of benignity, the specificity and th…
