Human herpes virus 8 (HHV8) is associated with four rare lymphoproliferative disorders: 1) a subset of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), b) large B-cell lymphoma arising in HHV8-associated multicentric Castleman's disease, c) primary effusion lymphoma, and 4) germinotropic lymphoproliferative disorder.
The International Classification of Diseases for Oncology (ICD-O) is a domain-specific extension of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems for tumor diseases. This classification is widely used by cancer registries. It is currently in its third revision (ICD-O-3). ICD-10 includes a list of ...
The disorder now termed DFL had been considered to be a follicular lymphoma that develops in one or more sites of the GI tract (i.e. stomach, duodenum, jejunum, small intestine, large intestine and rectum) as well as in various sites outside of the GI tract; this contrasts with other forms of follicular lymphoma which do not involve the GI ...
In 1994, the Revised European-American Lymphoma (REAL) classification applied immunophenotypic and genetic features in identifying distinct clinicopathologic entities among all the lymphomas except Hodgkin lymphoma. [41] For coding purposes, the ICD-O (codes 9590–9999) [42] and ICD-10 (codes C81-C96) [43] are available.
In situ follicular lymphoma is an accumulation of monoclonal B cells (i.e. cells descendent from a single ancestral cell) in the germinal centers of lymphoid tissue. These cells commonly bear a pathological genomic abnormality, i.e. a translocation between position 32 on the long (i.e. "q") arm of chromosome 14 and position 21 on chromosome 18's q arm.
Pediatric-type follicular lymphoma (PTFL) is a disease in which malignant B-cells (i.e. a lymphocyte subtype originating from the bone marrow) accumulate in, overcrowd, and cause the expansion of the lymphoid follicles in, and thereby enlargement of the lymph nodes in the head and neck regions [1] and, less commonly, groin and armpit regions. [2]
May progress to follicular lymphoma or mantle cell lymphoma; may be associated with the development of certain other lymphoid malignancies: Duration: Chronic: Types: In situ follicular lymphoma; in situ mantle cell lymphoma: Treatment: Follow-up tests for the development of follicular or mantle cell lymphoma, or other lymphoid malignancies
This list features both the added and removed subtypes. Also, 22 ICD-9-CM codes were updated. [2] The ICD codes stated in the first column are those from the DSM-IV-TR. The ones that were updated are marked yellow – the older ICD codes from the DSM-IV are stated in the third column.
