Abstract:
Purpose To study the pathologic types and subtypes distribution of 645 cases of lymphoma in Xinjiang. Methods Clini-cal data of lymphoma from April 2008 to march 2013 in the people’s hospital of Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region in Xinjiang were col-lected and reviewed, including morphological, immunohistochemical and clinical characteristics. According to the WHO classification all the cases were reappraised. Results Of the 645 cases, 558 cases (86.51%) were non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) and 82 ca-ses (12.71%) were Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL). Among NHL cases, 448 cases (80.29%) were B-cell neoplasms and 110 cases (19.71%) were T/NK-cell neoplasms. The commonest subtype was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (258 cases, comprising 40% of all lymphomas) and extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (41 cases, comprising 6.36% of all lymphomas) in B cell lymphoma and T/NK cell lymphoma. Burkitt’s lymphoma and lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma were predominanly Uyghurs, but mantle cell lymphoma, follicu-lar lymphoma and extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue were predominanly Hans. The most com-mon subtypes of Hodgkin’s lymphoma are mixed cellularity, nodular sclerosis and lymphocyte-rich classical Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Sub-types distribution of Hodgkin’s lymphoma has a certain difference in the different ethnic groups, the age of onset did not present twin peaks and the highest proportion was children. Conclusion The lymphoid neoplasms of Xinjiang displayed some ethnic features simi-lar to those reported in literature as well as other regions of China, whereas the distribution of some subtypes showed some differences.
