Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of bone marrow immunopathogenesis in the diagnosis and staging of lymphoma. Methods Clinical data of 266 patients with newly diagnosed lymphoma admitted to Department of Hematology in the First Hospital of Jilin University from August 2015 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The results of lymphoma diagnosis and staging in different bone marrow detection methods were compared, SPSS 22.0 software was used to make statistical analysis and χ2 test was used to compare the positive rates of lymphoma bone marrow infiltration in different methods. Results In the 266 patients, 64 cases (24.1 %) were diagnosed with lymphoma by using bone marrow detection on the condition that no lymph node pathology was available and all the immunophenotypes of 64 cases were identified by bone marrow immunopathology. Bone marrow infiltration was identified in 121 patients (45.5 %), among which the rate of bone marrow infiltration was 0 (0/12) in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and 47.6 % (121/254) in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The rate of bone marrow infiltration was 50.0 % (105/210) and 36.4 % (16/44) in B type and T type NHL respectively. The positive rate of bone marrow infiltration detected by bone marrow smear, bone marrow biopsy, bone marrow flow cytometry and bone marrow immunopathology were 78.5 % (95/121), 87.6 % (106/121), 89.3 % (108/121), 96.7 % (117/121) respectively. Bone marrow immunopathology was more advantageous than any other methods, and there was a statistical difference (χ2＝18.38, 9.09, 3.76; all P < 0.05). Among 121 patients who were identified with bone marrow infiltration by bone marrow detection, the staging of 42 patients (34.7 %) were amended, including the staging of 39 amended patients (32.2 %) through bone marrow immunopathologic detection. Conclusion Bone marrow immunopathology can be used for the diagnosis and classification of lymphoma, which has an obvious advantage in detecting bone marrow infiltration of lymphoma compared with bone marrow smear, bone marrow biopsy, bone marrow flow cytometry, and it can be used to amend the clinical staging.
