Overview

Lymph node or extranodal tissue biopsy is diagnostic of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. According to the Lugano classification, there are four stages of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma based on the number of nodes and extranodal involvement.

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Biopsy

Lymph node or extranodal tissue biopsy is diagnostic of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma.

Staging

Staging for angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma is provided in the following table:[1]

Revised staging system for primary nodal lymphomas (Lugano classification)
Stage Involvement Extranodal (E) status
Limited
I One node or a group of adjacent nodes Single extranodal lesions without nodal involvement
II Two or more nodal groups on the same side of the diaphragm Stage I or II by nodal extent with limited contiguous extranodal involvement
II Bulky II as above with "bulky" disease Not applicable
Advanced
III Nodes on both sides of the diaphragm; nodes above the diaphragm with spleen involvement Not applicable
IV Additional noncontiguous extralymphatic involvement Not applicable
