Scope note: Linfoma maligno en el que las células linfomatosas se agrupan en nódulos identificables dentro de los GANGLIOS LINFÁTICOS. Los nódulos se asemenjan hasta cierto punto a los CENTROS GERMINALES de los folículos de los ganglios linfáticos y probablemente representan la proliferación neoplásica de los LINFOCITOS B de los centros foliculares de los ganglios linfáticos.

Scope note: Malignant lymphoma in which the lymphomatous cells are clustered into identifiable nodules within the LYMPH NODES. The nodules resemble to some extent the GERMINAL CENTER of lymph node follicles and most likely represent neoplastic proliferation of lymph node-derived follicular center B-LYMPHOCYTES.

Lymphoma, Follicular - Preferred
Concept UI M0012818
Scope note Malignant lymphoma in which the lymphomatous cells are clustered into identifiable nodules within the LYMPH NODES. The nodules resemble to some extent the GERMINAL CENTER of lymph node follicles and most likely represent neoplastic proliferation of lymph node-derived follicular center B-LYMPHOCYTES.

Concept UI M0025090
Scope note A low-grade malignant lymphoma of follicular pattern in which there is no clear preponderance of one cell type (small or large) over another. The large cells, cleaved or noncleaved, are often 2-3 times larger in diameter than normal lymphocytes.

Scope note Malignant lymphoma in which the majority of neoplastic cells within the follicles are large cleaved or noncleaved cells. The degree to which the follicular center cells retain their ability to form follicles varies with the state of B-cell transformation.

Concept UI M0025091
Scope note A low-grade malignant lymphoma of predominantly follicular pattern. Follicles are of relatively uniform size and shape and the cells are usually somewhat larger than normal lymphocytes. Nuclei are irregular with prominent indentations and cytoplasm can rarely be identified. Cells exhibiting these characteristics are often called centrocytes.
