Article Synopsis
- The study addresses challenges in diagnosing classic Burkitt lymphoma (BL) due to its overlap with atypical BL and other B-cell lymphomas, especially in resource-limited settings without molecular testing.
- Aims included quantifying diagnostic variability among pathologists with differing experience levels and evaluating the effectiveness of group discussions in improving accuracy.
- Results showed poor initial concordance in diagnoses, but expert pathologists performed better; post-discussion, there was improved agreement, highlighting that joint meetings can reduce variability in interpreting BL cases.
