Overview
B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphomas and most Non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Hodgkin's lymphoma may be classified according to the World Health Organisation classification system into 2 groups: nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma and classical Hodgkin lymphoma (includes nodular sclerosis classical Hodgkin lymphoma, lymphocyte-rich classical Hodgkin lymphoma, mixed cellularity classical Hodgkin lymphoma, and lymphocyte-depleted classical Hodgkin lymphoma). Non-Hodgkin lymphomas may be classified into several subtypes based on the World Health Organisation classification system.
Classification
B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphomas and most Non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
- Hodgkin's lymphoma may be classified according to the World Health Organisation classification system into 2 groups:[1]
- Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma
- Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (includes 4 subtypes)
- Nodular sclerosis classical Hodgkin lymphoma
- Lymphocyte-rich classical Hodgkin lymphoma
- Mixed cellularity classical Hodgkin lymphoma
- Lymphocyte-depleted classical Hodgkin lymphoma
- Non-Hodgkin lymphoma may be classified according to the World Health Organisation classification system into 2 groups including B-cell neoplasms, and T-cell and putative NK-cell neoplasms. B-cell neoplasms may further be classified according to the World Health Organisation into: [1][2][3]
- Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma
- Monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis
- B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia
- Splenic marginal zone lymphoma
- Hairy cell leukemia
- Splenic B-cell lymphoma/leukemia, unclassifiable
- Splenic diffuse red pulp small B-cell lymphoma
- Hairy cell leukemia-variant
- Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma
- Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), IgM
- μ heavy-chain disease
- ɣ heavy-chain disease
- a heavy-chain disease

- High-grade B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (HGBL, NOS)
- B-cell lymphoma, unclassifiable, with features intermediate between DLBCL and classical Hodgkin lymphoma
- Non-Hodgkin lymphoma may be classified according to rate of growth into 2 subtypes:
- Aggresive (high-grade)
- Indolent (low-grade)
Most common
Five account for nearly three out of four patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma:[4]
- Diffuse large B cell lymphoma
- Follicular lymphoma
