Topic:

Extranodal lymphoma 2009

Description:

Extranodal lymphomas: Extra nodal means that the primary area of presentation of the lymphoma is not in the lymph nodes. Lymphomas do not only arise in lymph nodes. Many arise [or present] in non-lymphoid sites such as the skin and gastrointestinal tract. The gastrointestinal tract is the most common extra-nodal site for follicular lymphomas. Some kinds of extranodal lymphomas are: bone, breast, eye, intestine and skin.

Question:

1. What does the term extranodal lymphoma mean and what are the common sites?
2. What is the possible aetiology and pathogenesis of extranodal lymphomas?
3. What are the important diagnostic procedures and management options available?
