B-cell and plasma cell proliferations are frequently observed in nodal T follicular helper (nTfh) cell lymphomas and can present a diagnostic challenge. These proliferations can be monotypic or monoclonal and morphologically resemble lymphoma or plasmacytoma, but their clinical behavior is poorly defined. In this study, we reviewed 414 cases of nTfh lymphoma seen over the past decade at our institution.
