The 5th edition of the WHO classification (WHO-HAEM5) and the International Consensus Classification (ICC) have considerable overlap but also some distinct differences in categorizing indolent B‑cell lymphomas. Most differences with the expected impact on the daily diagnostic routine relate to follicular lymphoma (FL). Grading of FL remains mandatory only in the ICC; a diffuse growth pattern in an FL with > 15 blasts per high-power field (FL grade 3A) is not automatically classified as DLBCL according to WHO-HAEM5, and an FL subtype with unusual morphology (blastoid or large centrocyte) and biology is recognized as an entity only in the WHO-HAEM5. With the exception of B‑prolymphocytic leukemia, which is no longer acknowledged in WHO-HAEM5, there are only minor differences between both classifications and include updated names of entities, improved diagnostic criteria, and upgrades from provisional to definite entities.

Expression of CD2, CD25 and/or CD30 in extracutaneous mast cells (MC) is a minor diagnostic criterion for systemic mastocytosis (SM) in the classification of the World Health Organization and International Consensus Classification. So far, it remains unknown whether expression of these antigens on MC is of prognostic significance in SM. We performed a retrospective multi-center study of patients with SM using the data set of the registry of the European Competence Network on Mastocytosis, including 5034 patients with various MC disorders.

Introduction: Adenoid basal cell carcinoma is a rare cervical malignancy which is indolent in nature but resembles more commonly occurring aggressive malignancies.
Cases: Here we describe three cases of cervical adenoid basal cell carcinoma. All patients had a history of cervical dysplasia with high-risk HPV.

Indolent clonal lymphoid disorders are not recognized as lymphomas as they generally need no systemic treatment, and depending on the lesion, need only limited clinical follow-up. These lesions are usually incidentally diagnosed during the work up for other disease. The recognition of indolent clonal lymphoid disorders is important to avoid misdiagnosis as lymphoma and unnecessary treatment.

Clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma (CCPRCC) was included as a separate entity in the World Health Organisation classification of renal tumours in 2016. Immuno-histopathological and genetic characteristics are much known, but still, clinical features and long-term follow-up require more consolidated data. We report three cases of CCPRCC, detected in different clinical settings.
