Overview

Lymph node or extranodal tissue biopsy is diagnostic of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Biopsy

  • Lymph node or extranodal tissue biopsy is diagnostic of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
  • Biopsy findings vary in morphologic features depending on the specific subtype.
  • he abnormal lymphocytes in the lymph node, bone marrow, or extranodal sites can be subdivided as small cleaved or noncleaved, intermediate, or large cell and can have a follicular or diffuse pattern.
  • Lymphomas usually alter the lymph node architecture, and the capsule is usually involved.
