摘要

Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) represent a major health problem worldwide, and incidence has been on the rise continuously for the last few decades. It is estimated that approximately 55,000 new cases of NHL will be diagnosed in the United States in 1998 and that slightly fewer than 25,000 patients will die of treatment failure or recurrent disease. The rising incidence of NHL is related not only to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome epidemic but to also a steady increase in the number of cases diagnosed in older patients without immunosuppression. The new pathologic classification of NHL (revised European-American lymphoma classification, REAL) developed by the International Lymphoma Study Group (ILSG) is already resulting in more accurate disease-specific epidemiologic and clinical investigations. These studies have brought a new awareness of the existence and the relative prevalence of discrete NHL subtypes that appear to predominate among patients in different populations according to age, sex, geographic distribution, and predisposing conditions. This developing database has also the potential to result in the discovery of specific environmental causes, predisposing genetic factors, and therapeutic approaches. Some of the entities defined in the REAL classification, such as follicular lymphomas, diffuse B large-cell lymphomas, and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphomas, were already well described in the older classification systems (Kiel and Working Formulation). Others, such as mantle cell lymphoma, (MCL) anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL), lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma), and primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) are relatively new members of the family, and accurate data on their clinicopathologic features and natural histories have only recently begun to emerge. This review presents in detail the most recent data on the clinical presentation of, diagnostic evaluation of, and treatment options for the most common of the new NHL entities: MCL, MALT lymphoma, CD30+ (Ki-1+) ALCL, and PMBCL. These four entities combined represent approximately 20% of all cases of NHL and exemplify well the broad clinicopathologic spectrum of NHL and the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges facing those who care for patients affected by these conditions.
