Objective: to identify the perceptions of teamwork according to professionals of an oncohematology unit.

Methods: this is an exploratory study/qualitative approach. Nineteen health professionals from the oncohematology unit of a public teaching hospital participated. Data collection took place through semi-structured interviews, from September to December 2018. Data analysis followed Content Analysis, thematic modality, and the work process theoretical framework.

Results: two categories emerged: Cooperative behavior of professionals from an oncohematology unit, revealing meanings of teamwork and its facilitating/hindering factors in the unit, and Composition, characteristics and management of the unit, presenting teamwork in the perspective of organization/dynamics of work at the unit, material instruments, qualification/training, team composition and organizational management.

Final Considerations: there is a need for management to know and better understand the work of workers and their difficulties, providing psychological support to the team.

Aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) in children, adolescents, and young adults (CAYA) include Burkitt lymphoma (BL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and a subset of high-grade tumors with features intermediate between these entities whose genetic and molecular profiles have not been completely elucidated. In this study, we have characterized 37 aggressive B-NHL in CAYA, 33 with high-grade morphology, and 4 DLBCL with MYC rearrangement (MYC-R), using targeted next-generation sequencing and the aggressive lymphoma gene expression germinal center B-cell-like (GCB), activated B-cell-like (ABC), and dark zone signatures (DZsig). Twenty-two tumors had MYC-R without BCL2 breaks, and two MYC-non-R cases had BCL6 translocations.
