Overview
In contrast with B-cell lymphoma, classification of such a rare neoplasm has been controversial. Extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma may be classified according to WHO into 2 subtypes: NK cell-derived neoplasms, namely, aggressive NK cell leukemia and extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma, nasal type. Based on the organ involvement, extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma may be classified into extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, and extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma, extra nasal type which contains two major subclass: Enteropathy type and subcutaneous panniculitis-like.
Classification
- In contrast with B-cell lymphoma, classification of such a rare neoplasm has been controversial, since the cytologic features have not been very useful. Further, by many entities, T-cell and natural killer cell (NK) neoplasms do not share any similar immuno-phenotype. Because of such matter, clinical features became handier for classification and somehow even more important than the precise cell of origin.[1][2]
- Since the majority of cytotoxic T-cell and NK cell lymphomas are located out of lymph nodes, the gene expressing cytotoxic molecules may predispose to apoptosis by tumor cells and by standard cells.
- Three major categories of extranodal T/NK cell tumors include:[3]
- Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type lymphoma
- Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, enteropathy type lymphoma
- Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, subcutaneous panniculitis-like
Extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma may be classified according to WHO into 2 subtypes:
- NK cell-derived neoplasms, namely, aggressive NK cell leukemia
- Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type
Based on the organ involvement, extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma may be classified into:[4][1]
- Extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma, nasal type
- Extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma, extra nasal type

Natural Killer cell neoplasms are classified by the world health organization (WHO) into:
- NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (NKTCL) [5]
- Aggressive NK-cell leukemia (ANKCL)
- Chronic lymphoproliferative disorders of NK-cell
