Mature Lymphoid Neoplasm Flashcards
is which the primary site of disease is the blood or bone marrow are classified as
leukemia
is which the localization of disease is in the lymph nodes or spleen are classified as
lymphomas
a disorder in which neoplastic cells are prominent in the blood yet also involve the spleen and lymph nodes
chronic lymphocytic leukemia
a translocated gene that stimulates entry into the cell cycles
MYC
a translocated gene suppresses apoptosis
BCL2
a translocated gene which can suppress the transcription of other genes necessary for cell growth
BCL6
it is the first step in interpreting patterns of involvement
examination of the morphology
examples of aggressive disease
PAMBS
promyelocytic leukemia
adult t-cell leukemia/lymphoma
mantle cell lymphoma
burkitt leukemia/lymphoma
sezary syndrome
examples of indolent disease
CLL
HCL
M
FL
W
with a stem cell or precursor phenotype, is more commonly found in the pediatric population
acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL)
symptoms of mature lymphoid neoplasm
fever
weight loss
night sweats
adenopathy
in what disease does a patient complaints about alcohol intolerance or pruritus or skin rash upon starting ampicillin
hodgkin lymphoma
it is the first test to order to investigate mature lymphoid neoplasm
complete blood count (CBC)
B symptoms
weight loss (>10% body weight)
recurrent fever
recurrent drenching night sweats
is often used to document clonality associated with lymphoid malignancies
flow cytometry
have utility as estimates of tumor burden and have been incorporated into scoring systems that have prognostic value
LDH
B2 nicroglobulin
it is the gold standard for lymphoma diagnosis
excisional biopsy
was first applied to hodgkin lymphoma to quantify nodal and extranodal sites of involvement
ann arbor staging
a simplification of the original ann arbor staging, and is currently used in NHL
lugano classification
the most common leukemia in adults in western countries
chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
median age of CLL
72 years old
