Introduction: The BV-AVD (Brentuximab vedotin, doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) combination for first-line treatment of advanced stage Hodgkin's lymphoma has been approved by regulatory authorities and included in international guidelines. However, several factors influence its incorporation as standard of care.

Materials And Methods: A group of experts from different institutions was identified and, using the Delphi method, an analysis of the results of the ECHELON 1 trial for the indication of BV-AVD over ABVD (doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine sulfate, dacarbazine) in patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma Stages III and IV in Argentina was done.

  • Primary lymphoma of the female genital tract (PLFGT) is an uncommon type of lymphoma, with a study involving 60 women revealing that many cases were diagnosed around their early 50s.
  • The uterus and ovaries were the most frequently affected sites, and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) was the predominant subtype found in the majority of patients.
  • The study indicated a median overall survival of approximately 13 years for DLBCL patients, with advanced disease stage correlating to a poorer prognosis, while CNS relapses were notably linked to patients with ovarian involvement who did not receive prophylactic treatment.

Chromosomal 1p duplications are a rarity, with minimal literature on the topic. As a result, it is useful to document patient presentations with this defect to help guide the management and treatment of future patients with this genetic abnormality. We present a successful case report of a patient with a chromosome 1p31.

Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a heterogeneous group of haematological cancers with generally poor clinical outcomes. However, a subset of patients experience durable disease control, and little is known regarding long-term outcomes. The International T-cell Lymphoma Project (ITCLP) is the largest prospectively collected cohort of patients with PTCLs, providing insight into clinical outcomes at academic medical centres globally.
