Real world data on histological transformation in patients with follicular lymphoma: incidence, clinico-pathological risk factors and outcome in a nationwide Danish cohort.

We investigated incidence, risk factors and outcome for follicular lymphoma (FL) patients with histologic transformation (HT) found at primary diagnosis (discordant/composite, dc-tFL) or sequentially (s-tFL). Between 2000 and 2015, 2773 patients were identified. The majority of patients (2252, 81%) did not experience HT (nt-FL), while 224 (8%) had dc-tFL and 297 (11%) s-tFL.
