Overview
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- In 1964, Lennert first described the disease as 'centrocytic' lymphoma.
- In 1982, Weisenburger first proposed the concept of 'mantle-zone lymphoma'.[1]
- In 1985, Pileri et al. reported on 18 cases of small B-cell lymphomas which displayed a mantle-fashion growth around reactive germinal centers.
- In 1992, Banks first coined the term mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).[2]
- In 1994, MCL was included into the Revised European-American Classification of Lymphoid Neoplasms (REAL) classification, and later also in the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of Haematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues.
