Pediatric-type follicular lymphoma (PTFL) is an extremely rare B-cell lymphoma that primarily affects children and young adults, typically in individuals under 25 years old, with a median age of 15 years. Here, we report a rare case of PTFL in a 27-year-old adult male who presented with a slow-growing mass near his left ear. Initial CT scans of the neck revealed two oval-shaped, smooth, well-defined, homogeneously enhancing soft tissue density lesions in the superficial lobe of the left parotid gland.

This case report presents the details of an elderly man in Zhejiang Province of China, who tested human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) negative and subsequently developed Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma (NMZL) along with disseminated infection. The study focuses on analyzing the distinct clinical symptoms and pathological manifestations in order to offer precise diagnosis and effective treatment for patients. A 76-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital due to recurrent fever.

Only 10% of new lymphoma diagnoses in the USA occur in children < 15 years. Although the same diagnostic criteria apply to both adult and pediatric lymphomas, there are important differences in some lymphoma subtypes. These differences are recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) with the recent 2022 classification of pediatric tumors including pediatric hematopoietic tumors.

Aims: The diagnosis of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) in the bone marrow (BM) is challenged by aberrant phenotypes and by overlapping histological features with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). To address these issues, we (i) assessed LPL immunophenotype on a large series of BM samples, (ii) drew possible correlations between LPL phenotype and clinical/molecular data and (iii) investigated the role of new phenotypical markers in the differential diagnosis between LPL and MZL.
Materials And Methods: The study retrospectively considered 81 clinically annotated LPL diagnosed at Padua University Hospital (Padua, Italy) during a 5-year period.

Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) can have varied presentations and pathologic features, including high Ki-67 expression ( > 20%) as well as increased numbers of large B cells (LC). However, there are limited data available demonstrating the prognostic significance of these variables in patients with MZL. In this multi-institutional retrospective cohort study of patients with MZL treated at 10 centers, we evaluated the association between the presence of Ki-67 expression and increased LCs on survival and risk of histologic transformation (HT).
