Slide 142: Malignant lymphoma of small
bowel
 |
Grossly the tissue of
a malignant lymphoma looks like raw fish. Think about that next time you
are chowing down on a plate of sushi. Microscopically, this slide just
looks like the tissue has been run over by lymphocytes. There will not
likely be any follicular arrangement you can see in the lymphocytic infiltrate,
and the terms diffuse and follicular are applied to lymphomas observed
only in lymph nodes themselves. See if you can find the classical nuclear
features of malignancy, they should be easy to discern.
