Overview
On gross pathology, white-grey, uniform, and enlarged lymphnodes are characteristic findings of Hodgkin's lymphoma. On microscopic histopathological analysis, Reed-Sternberg cells, reactive cell infiltrate, and complete or partial effacement of the lymph node architecture are characteristic findings of Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Pathophysiology
Hodgkin's lymphoma,[1] also known as Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin's disease,[2] is a type of lymphoma, in which cancer originates from a specific type of white blood cells called lymphocytes.
Associated Conditions
Reports from countries like Honduras,[3] China,[4] Mexico,[5] Peru,[6] and Malaysia[7] suggest an association between EBV infection and Hodgkin's lymphoma, an association that is more evident in the pediatric population[8] and in the subtype of mixed cellularity.[9]
Gross Pathology
Affected lymph nodes (most often, laterocervical lymph nodes) are enlarged, but their shape is preserved because the capsule is not invaded. Usually, the cut surface is white-grey and uniform; in some histological subtypes (e.g. nodular sclerosis) may appear a nodular aspect
Microscopic Pathology
Microscopic examination of the lymph node biopsy reveals complete or partial effacement of the lymph node architecture by scattered large malignant cells known as Reed-Sternberg cells (typical and variants) admixed within a reactive cell infiltrate composed of variable proportions of lymphocytes, histiocytes, eosinophils, and plasma cells. The Reed-Sternberg cells are identified as large often bi-nucleated cells with prominent nucleoli and an unusual CD45-, CD30+, CD15+/- immunophenotype. In approximately 50% of cases, the Reed-Sternberg cells are infected by the Epstein-Barr virus.

Type of cell | Characteristics | |
---|---|---|
Classic | ||
Reed-Sternberg cells (RSC) | Include large size (20–50 micrometres), abundant, amphophilic, finely granular/homogeneous cytoplasm; two mirror-image nuclei (owl eyes) each with an eosinophilic nucleolus and a thick nuclear membrane (chromatin is distributed close to the nuclear membrane). | |
Variants | ||
Hodgkin cells | (Atypical mononuclear Reed-Sternberg cell) have the same characteristics as Reed-Sternberg cells (RSC), but is mononucleated. | |
Lacunar Reed-Sternberg cells | Are large, with a single hyperlobulated nucleus, multiple, small nucleoli and eosinophilic cytoplasm which is retracted around the nucleus, creating an empty space ("lacunae"). | |
Pleomorphic Reed-Sternberg cells | Has multiple irregular nuclei. | |
"Popcorn" Reed-Sternberg cells | (Lympho-histiocytic variant) is a small cell, with a very lobulated nucleus, small nucleoli. | |
"Mummy" Reed-Sternberg cells | Has a compact nucleus with no nucleolus and basophilic cytoplasm. |
