3 General Guide Diagnosis 1.Adequate sampling and proper handling of the tissue 2. Effective communication between the clinician and the pathologist 3. Surgical biopsy of the largest lymph nodes or mass lesion* 4. Needle biopsy in certain conditions 5. Flow cytometry or cytogenetic studies: optional * Lymph node Staging Work-up 1. Complete history and physical examination including Waldeyer s rings, B symptoms, risk of HIV infection, infection, autoimmune diseases, immunosuppressive therapies 2. Complete blood cell count with a differential, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) 3. Chemistry profiles: LDH, AST, ALT, Alk-p, bilirubin, uric acid, Cr, Ca, albumin, total protein, sugar 4. EKG, CXR-PA, whole body CT, HBsAg, and anti-hcv 5. Other evaluation: beta2-microglobulin, Urinalysis and stool analysis, cytologic study of third space fluids 6. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy 7. Lumbar puncture with cytology in selected patients a. All patients with Burkitt lymphoma b. Patients with NHL in certain sites e.g. CNS, epidural space, testes, ethmoid sinus, and large cell lymphoma with bone marrow involvement c. HIV positive patients 8. Gastrointestinal studies a. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, upper gastrointestinal plus small bowel and lower gastrointestinal series for patients with gastrointestinal tract lymphoma; Endoscopic ultrasonography for gastric MALT lymphoma b. Considered in patients with positive stool occult blood 9. Selected radiologic images as clinically needed, e.g. positron emission tomograph, magnetic resonance imaging, and bone scan 10. Cytogenetic and molecular tests in selected patients (optional); cardiac ejection fraction for age > 60 if anthracycline will be used. Anthracyline is contraindicated if ejection fraction is less than 50%.
4 Staging Classification Provided by Ann Arbor Stage I: involvement of a single lymph node region or a single extra-lymphatic organ or site Stage II: involvement of 2 or more lymph node regions on the same side of the diaphragm Stage III: involvement of lymph node regions on both sides of the diaphragm Stage IV: involvement of liver or bone marrow or an extralymphatic organ
5 NON-HODGKINS S LYMPHOMA Low grade Lymphoma Small lymphocytic lymphoma Intermediate grade lymphoma Follicular lymphoma, grade 3 High grade lymphoma Immunoblastic; diffuse Follicular lymphoma, grade 1 Follicular lymphoma, grade 2 Diffuse small cleaved cell lymphoma Diffuse mixed small and large cell lymphoma Lymphoblastic lymphoma Small, non-cleaved cell Diffuse large cell lymphoma
6 NON-HODGKINS S LYMPHOMA LOW GRADE LYMPHOMA 1)Early Stage ( Ann Arbor I II ) Radiation therapy 2)Advanced Stage ( Ann Arbor III IV ) a) For elderly symptomatic patients in advanced stage: i) Adopt watch and wait policy, deferring treatment until symptoms dictate. ii) 1st line chemotherapy: Single oral alkylating agents iii) 2nd line chemotherapy COP regimen iv) 3 rd line chemotherapy CEOP regimen v) R-COP regimen for follicular lymphoma b) For young patients: Tailor the treatment to individual condition. Autologous PBSCT post complete remission. 3) Relapsed low grade lymphoma Autologous PBSCT for chemo-sensitive disease
7 NON-HODGKINS S LYMPHOMA INTERMEDIATE GRADE LYMHOMA 1)Early Stage ( Ann Arbor I II ) 4 Courses of chemotherapy (CEOP ) + involved field radiation OR 6-8 Courses of chemotherapy ((CEOP ) RCEOPFor follicular & diffuse large B cell lymphoma 2)Advanced Stage ( Ann Arbor III IV ) a) 6-8 courses of chemotherapy (CEOP ) RCEOPFor follicular & diffuse large B cell lymphoma + local radiation for bulky mass b) autologous PBSCT i) fails to achieve 1st complete remission with initial therapy ii) relapse post 1st line chemotherapy iii) consolidation for patient at high risk of relapse high serum LDH level, bulky disease, extranodal disease, advanced stage iv) primary refractory ( overt chemotherapy resistance ) 3) Relapsed intermediate grade lymphoma a) slavage chemotherapy to confirm chemo-sensitivity b) autologous PBSCT
8 NON-HODGKINS S LYMPHOMA HIGH GRADE LYMPHOMA a) ALL regimen ( including CNS prophylaxis ) 1)Lymphoblastic lymphoma b) Allogeneic PBSCT a) Stanford Regimen 2)Small Non-cleaved Cell Lymphoma (Burkitt s lymphoma ) b) Autologous PBSCT for relapsed disease
9 Lumbar puncture for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)examination should be performed in patients with the following conditions: Diffuse aggressive NHL with bone marrow epidural testicular paranasal sinus nasopharyngeal involvement or patient with two or more extranodal sites of disease. High-grade lymphoblastic lymphoma High-grade small noncleaved cell lymphomas (eg, Burkitt and non-burkitt types) HIV-related lymphoma Primary CNS lymphoma Patients with neurologic signs and symptoms
10 HODGKIN S DISEASE 1)Chemotherapy with ABVD regimen + radiation for bulky mass 2)Autologous PBSCT a)stage IVb disease post complete remission b)failure to achieve 1st complete remission c) Relapsed disease
