Abstract excerpt
High-grade B-cell lymphomas, whether originated in a lymph node or in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), show similar morphologic traits, a fact that has fueled a long-running controversy about whether they represent different entities. They differ, however, in that some high-grade MALT lymphomas show less aggressive clinical behavior, a focal low-grade component being identified in some of them. In a...
