Interpretation of lymphoid proliferations and lymphomas associated with immune deficiency and dysregulation in the 5th edition WHO classification of haematolymphoid tumours

Abstract

The fifth edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of lymphohematopoietic system tumors updated the terminology, types of lesions, diagnostic criteria, nomenclature, and other aspects of lymphoid proliferations and lymphomas associated with immune deficiency and dysregulation. The important updates and main changes in this section were briefly introduced, in order to guide the precise classification of lymphoid proliferations and lymphomas associated with immune deficiency and dysregulation, and standardize pathological reports.
