===Microscopic===
Features (lymph node):
*Abundant abnormally-shaped lymphoid follicles - '''key feature''' - including some of the following:
**Non-polarized mantle zone (normal mantle zone is usu. thicker at capsular aspect).
**Non-polarized germinal center (normal germinal center has dark & light area).
**Loss of tingible body macrophages.
**Sinuses effaced (lost).
 
Note:
*The intrafollicular component of the lymph node is compressed - follicles are often described as "kissing", as they nearly touch.
*In [[bone marrow]] specimens the neoplastic cells classically have a paratrabecular arrangement,<ref name=pmid17284114>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Iancu | first1 = D. | last2 = Hao | first2 = S. | last3 = Lin | first3 = P. | last4 = Anderson | first4 = SK. | last5 = Jorgensen | first5 = JL. | last6 = McLaughlin | first6 = P. | last7 = Medeiros | first7 = LJ. | title = Follicular lymphoma in staging bone marrow specimens: correlation of histologic findings with the results of flow cytometry immunophenotypic analysis. | journal = Arch Pathol Lab Med | volume = 131 | issue = 2 | pages = 282-7 | month = Feb | year = 2007 | doi = 10.1043/1543-2165(2007)131[282:FLISBM]2.0.CO;2 | PMID = 17284114 }}</ref> i.e. the lymphoma cells are found adjacent to the bone spicules.
 
DDx:
*Reactive follicular hyperplasia.
*[[Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma]] - esp. for the grade 3B.

*[http://library.med.utah.edu/WebPath/HEMEHTML/HEME034.html Follicular lymphoma (utah.edu)].
====Grading====
*Grade 1-2: <= 22 centroblasts / HPF; where 1 HPF ~= 0.2376 mm^2 (22 mm eye piece @ 40X objective).
*Grade 3A: >22 centroblasts / HPF; where 1 HPF ~= 0.2376 mm^2 (22 mm eye piece @ 40X objective).
*Grade 3B: only centroblasts (within a nodular architecture).
 
Notes:
*Significant interobserver variability.<ref>DG. 17 August 2010.</ref>
*Grade 1 & Grade 2 lumped together.
*One should evaluate 10 HPFs.
*''Only'' centroblasts ''without'' a nodular architecture is ''[[Diffuse large B cell lymphoma]]'' ([[DLBCL]]).
 
The usual cut points mentioned by people with [[HPFitis]] are:<ref name=Ref_Sternberg4_813>{{Ref Sternberg4|813}}</ref>

RETROPERITONEAL MASS, RIGHT, CORE BIOPSIES:
- NON-HODGKIN B-CELL LYMPHOMA, FAVOUR FOLLICULAR LYMPHOMA.
 
COMMENT:
Morphology:
-Small cells: size ~ mature lymphocytes, quantity - many, angular and round.
-Large cells (intermixed with small cells): size ~1.5-2x mature lymphocyte,
small nucleoli, moderate quantity of grey/basophilic cytoplasm, moderate
nuclear pleomorphism.
-Architecture: no gland formation, discohesive, no follicles apparent, no sheets
of large cells.
-Mitoses are uncommon.
 
Immunohistochemical stains (tumour cells):
Positive: CD45 (strong, membranous/cytoplasmic), CD20 (strong, membranous/cytoplasmic),
BCL-2 (strong, membranous/cytoplasmic), CD10 (strong, membranous), BCL-6 (moderate,
patchy, nuclear).
 
Negative: pankeratin, CD3, CD5, CD30, CD21 (follicular dendritic cells not apparent),
CD23 (scattered, rare).
 
Ki-67: highlights the large cells, primarily -- 5-35% of cells within the core.
 
The findings favour a follicular lymphoma, based on the cellular morphology and
immunostains; however, they are limited by the type of tissue sampling (core biopsy).
Clinical correlation is suggested.

The small cell lymphomas are a collection of commonly seen lymphomas that have a near-identical histomorphologic appearance.

The group includes:

  1. Small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
  2. Follicular lymphoma.
  3. Mantle cell lymphoma.
  4. Marginal zone lymphoma (includes MALT lymphoma).
  5. Hairy cell leukemia.
  6. Immunoproliferative small intestinal disease (IPSID).[1]
