General
and Systemic Histopathology, C601&C602
Slide 60: Malignant Lymphoma
|
Here you can see the
generalized replacement of the lymph node architecture with a diffuse infiltrate
of lymphocytes. OK, maybe you can't tell they are lymphocytes by
looking at the picture at the left, but when you use your microscope you'll
see them.
See this slide with the
virtual microscope. |

The picture says it all
here. Remember to look for cleaved nuclei. Does this slide show a diffuse
or nodular pattern? Can you identify the cell type? If not, don't be too
worried, even for someone who has had a fellowship in the discipline, it
isn't always possible. But I do want you to give it a try. Remember, EFFACEMENT
of the nodal architecture. |
