Small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms involving the bone marrow and peripheral blood Report on the Bone Marrow

Issues in diagnosis of small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms involving the bone marrow and peripheral blood Report on the Bone Marrow workshop of the XVIIth meeting of the European Association for Haematopathology and the Society for Hematopathology:

Abstract

Small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms are the most common lymphoproliferative disorders involving peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM). The Bone Marrow Workshop (BMW) organized by the European Bone Marrow Working Group (EBMWG) of the European Association for Haematopathology (EAHP) during the 17^th EAHP Meeting in Istanbul October 2014 was dedicated to discussion of cases illustrating how the recent advances in immunophenotyping, molecular techniques and cytogenetics provide better understanding and classification of these entities. Submitted cases were grouped into following categories:

cases illustrating diagnostic difficulties in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL).

cases of BM manifestations of small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms other than CLL.

transformation of small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms in the BM.

multiclonality and composite lymphomas in the BM.

This report summarizes presented cases and conclusions of the BMW and provides practical recommendations for classification of the BM manifestations of small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms based on the current state of knowledge.
