Splenic marginal zone lymphoma with micronodular T-cell rich B-cell lymphoma

Am J Surg Pathol. 2006 Jan;30(1):128-32. doi: 10.1097/01.pas.0000174268.22331.8d.

Abstract

The types of B-cell lymphoma commonly involving the spleen include splenic marginal zone lymphoma and T-cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma. We describe a unique case of splenic marginal zone lymphoma associated with micronodular T cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma in the red pulp, a combination that has not previously reported in the literature.
