  • Title: Malignant histiocytic lymphoma with large lacunar cells.
    Author: Leahu S, Dobrea M.
    Journal: Rom J Intern Med; 1997; 35(1-4):115-9. PubMed ID: 9562660.
    Abstract:
    A case of lymph node biopsy with a peculiar histological aspect is described. The clinical data suggest a malignant lymphoid disease. The histological picture is that of a malignant histiocytosis but, among the majority of small histiocytes, there are some large cells like the large lacunar cells from Hodgkin's disease. These large cells (and some small cells) contain the CD 30 antigen of Reed-Sternberg cells. It is discussed whether the appropriate diagnosis is Hodgkin's disease, malignant histiocytosis, or non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma. Our diagnosis is Hodgkin's disease, the nodular sclerosing form.
