Abstract

<p><strong>Background:</strong> Non-Hodgkin large cell B-lymphoma (DLBCL: Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma) were classified into two subtypes of Germinal Center B-Cell Like (GCB) and non-Germinal Center B-Cell Like (non-GCB), which GCB has a better prognosis. The Ki-67 antigen is one of the most reliable markers of cell proliferation. This research aims to establish the relationship between proliferation index Ki-67 with DLBCL subtypes and to evaluate the utility of Ki-67 proliferative index as a predictive marker for predicting stages of lymphoma.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We obtained 60 cases of patient samples DLBCL in Siloam Hospital Lippo Karawaci in 2014-2018. Clinical and pathological data were obtained from medical records. Chi-square methods were used to analyze data.</p><p><strong>Result:</strong> There were more ≤60 years compared to >60 years. In this study, there were more male patients than female patients. lymphoma provided in extranodal were higher than lymphoma in nodal form.</p><p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> There is a relationship between Ki-67 proliferation index with lymphoma GCB and non-GCB subtypes and stage of lymphoma, which can be used as a predictive factor in predicting the stage of lymphoma.</p>
