Chromosome abnormality involving band 8q24 is present in the malignant cells in virtually all 'Burkitt's' type malignancies. t(8;14)(q24;q32) translocations have nevertheless been found in certain cases of malignant lymphomas (ML) described as 'small non-cleaved non-Burkitt', 'immunoblastic' or 'histiocytic'. With a view to comparing objectively the histological picture of such lymphomas, we undertook morphometric analysis of seven cases of diffuse ML classed as 'Burkitt's' (three cases), 'immunoblastic' (two cases), 'small non-cleaved non-Burkitt' (one case) and 'large-cell lymphoma' (one case), all exhibiting band 8q24 rearrangement arising from various translocations. Our study substantiates the view that the histologic picture of MLs with 8q24 anomaly fits into a morphological continuum containing 'Burkitt's', 'small non-cleaved non-Burkitt' and 'immunoblastic' lymphomas.
几乎所有“伯基特氏”型恶性肿瘤的恶性细胞中都存在涉及8号染色体q24带的染色体异常。然而,在某些被描述为“小无裂非伯基特氏”、“免疫母细胞性”或“组织细胞性”的恶性淋巴瘤(ML)病例中发现了t(8;14)(q24;q32)易位。为了客观比较此类淋巴瘤的组织学表现,我们对7例弥漫性ML进行了形态计量分析,这些病例被分类为“伯基特氏”(3例)、“免疫母细胞性”(2例)、“小无裂非伯基特氏”(1例)和“大细胞淋巴瘤”(1例),所有病例均表现出由各种易位引起的8q24带重排。我们的研究证实了这样一种观点,即具有8q24异常的ML的组织学表现符合一个形态学连续谱,其中包括“伯基特氏”、“小无裂非伯基特氏”和“免疫母细胞性”淋巴瘤。
