The author presents a review of the world medical literature reports on the latest classifications of tumours of the hemopoietic and lymphatic tissues, based on new concepts of the hemopoiesis system. Changes in the interpretation of the meaning of such terms as "reticular cell", "reticulosis", reticulosarcoma", "hemocytoblastosis", and others are discussed. A contraversial nature of many new concepts and incompleatness of the discussion concerning the problem are emphasized. The author is one of the opinion that it would be better to abstain from the use of new classifications and from alterations in terms in practical work of pathologists before the appearance of a unified international classification of the tumours in question. Further studies of new theoretical aspects of the problem and continuation of detailed morphological, including histochemical, immunomorphological and other investigations of the substrate of tumour lesions of the hemopoietic and lymphatic tissues are recommended.
作者基于造血系统的新概念，对世界医学文献中有关造血和淋巴组织肿瘤最新分类的报告进行了综述。讨论了诸如“网状细胞”“网状细胞增多症”“网状细胞肉瘤”“成血细胞增多症”等术语含义解释的变化。强调了许多新概念的争议性以及关于该问题讨论的不完整性。作者认为，在出现有关肿瘤的统一国际分类之前，病理学家在实际工作中最好避免使用新分类和术语变更。建议进一步研究该问题的新理论方面，并继续对造血和淋巴组织肿瘤病变基质进行详细的形态学研究，包括组织化学、免疫形态学及其他研究。
