    Abstract:
    Three hundred and seventy non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphomas were seen at the Fondation Bergoniéé between 1965 and 1978 and classified according to the Kiel classification. Pretherapeutic data and evolution allow to recognize three distinct pathologic groups: 1) a first type of lymphosarcoma, so-called "low grade malignancy", is observed only in adults and old patients; the disease is often disseminated, the evolution is slow and the prognosis favorable; 2) a second type, so-called "lymphoblastosarcoma", is only one observed in young patients, the evolution is fast with frequent leukemic transformation and this group is thus very close to acute lymphoid leukemia; 3) a third type, so-called "immunoblastosarcoma", is observed only in old patients; the evolution is fast but without major spread; for these two latter groups, the prognosis is unfavorable. This highly significant and clearcut distinction may be a help for scheduling treatment according to each group of patients.
