Primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphomas represent 1 % of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas, with diffuse large B-cell lymphomas as the prevailing subtype. Low-grade B-cell lymphomas are exceptional with only 24 marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (EMZL) and 1 follicular lymphoma (FL) previously reported so far. While their molecular profiles are studied elsewhere, data on primary intraparenchymal CNS cases remain limited.

We present a series of 9 follicular lymphomas that progressed/transformed into classical Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL). Three cases of CHL showed a syncytial pattern (SCHL) making the differential diagnosis to Gray zone lymphoma (GZL) challenging. None of these three cases presented in the mediastinum.

Spontaneous remissions (SRs) in blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasms (BPDCNs) are infrequent, poorly documented, and transient. We report a 40-year-old man presenting with bycitopenia and soft tissue infection. The bone marrow exhibited 3% abnormal cells.

TAFRO syndrome is a rare and aggressive inflammatory entity characterized by thrombocytopenia, anasarca, fever, renal failure, reticulin fibrosis, and organomegaly. This entity supposes a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge due to its significant overlap with Castleman's disease. However, distinct clinical and histological features warrant its classification as a separate subtype of idiopathic multicentric Castleman's disease (iMCD).

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is known to be associated with the development of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). Exclusive extranodal bone marrow involvement is less common. Co-infection by other viruses, such as the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), increases the incidence of a frequent complication denominated by hemophagocytic lymphohistocytosis (HLH).

ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) cases with 6p25.3 rearrangement are characterized by peculiar morphological and immunohistochemical features compare to 6p25.3-negative ALK-negative ALCL cases.
