Bone2
  • Tumor cells are found in the bone marrow in up to 40% of the cases when immunohistochemical analysis is performed. (wikipedia.org)
  • A bone marrow smear was performed, in which 'cerebriform' cells were identified, confirming the diagnosis of Sézary syndrome. (bvsalud.org)
Occur3
  • However, there are several slow growing B-cell lymphomas that occur in this young age group. (dana-farber.org)
  • There are also rare T-cell lymphomas that are more frequently seen in adults but occasionally occur in children. (dana-farber.org)
  • among which embryonal and alveolar RMSs are the most common ones under the age of 20, while pleomorphic and spindle cell variants of the tumor may also occur in adults, with a peak at the 4th-5th and 6th -7th decades of lifetime, respectively. (biomedcentral.com)
Tumor cells4
  • Most patients, including up to 90% of young children and adolescents, have circulating autoantibodies directed against the ALK fusion protein expressed by their tumor cells. (wikipedia.org)
  • Agents in this class halt the cell cycle at the G1 phase in tumor cells. (medscape.com)
  • If malignancy is suspected, tissue surrounding the tumor will also be removed to increase the chance that none of the tumor cells are left behind. (msdvetmanual.com)
  • The latter is done by microscopically evaluating the edge of the resected tissue (the "margins") to see whether tumor cells are present. (msdvetmanual.com)
Neoplastic3
  • Cells grown in vitro from neoplastic tissue. (lookformedical.com)
  • Although their derivation was long debated, neoplastic cells characteristically express cytoplasmic immunoglobulin and may produce primary amyloid, leaving little doubt as to their lymphoplasmacytic origin. (merckvetmanual.com)

Typically3
  • A diagnosis of skin lymphoma is typically made by a dermatologist or a hematologist/oncologist. (uhapo.co.in)
  • ATC cells are less likely to stain positive for certain markers, including thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF1) or PAX-8, and do not typically stain positive for thyroglobulin in the anaplastic component of the tumor. (klarity.health)

Clinical3
  • The Working Formulation, originally proposed in 1982, classified and grouped lymphomas by morphology and clinical behavior (ie, low, intermediate, or high grade) with 10 subgroups labeled A to J.{Ref 1} In 1994, the Revised European-American Lymphoma (REAL) classification attempted to apply immunophenotypic and genetic features in identifying distinct clinicopathologic NHL entities. (medscape.com)
  • The diagnosis of skin lymphoma can be challenging, as it may present various clinical features that may resemble other skin conditions. (uhapo.co.in)
  • Initial management consisted of en una paciente con topical corticosteroids and oral antihistamines with little clinical response. (bvsalud.org)
Immune system2
  • Thyroid lymphoma develops from the immune system cells of the thyroid. (supremevascular.com)
  • Analysis of this network shows that it recapitulates known features of the human immune system and can be used uncover novel multi-step immune pathways, examine species-specific differences in immune processes, and predict the response of immune cells to stimuli. (stanford.edu)
Nuclei2
  • These "hallmark" cells have abnormal kidney-shaped or horseshoe-shaped nuclei, prominent Golgi, and express the CD30 tumor marker protein on their surface membranes. (wikipedia.org)
