Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, light micrograph. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common type of lymphoma and accounts for about 35% of all cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It is an aggressive malignancy and presents with rapidly enlarging lymph nodes or tumor masses at extranodal sites. There is diffuse proliferation of large to medium-sized lymphoid cells which can be classified into centroblasts and immunoblasts. Some cases have markedly pleomorphic anaplastic cells. This photomicrograph shows diffuse large B-cell lymphoma involving the kidney. Sheets of large atypical lymphoid cells infiltrate in between nephrons and completely replace the renal parenchyma. | |
