Prognostic Significance of T-Cell or Cytotoxic Molecules Phenotype in Classical Hodgkin’s Lymphoma: A Clinicopathologic Study

Abstract

The presence of T-cell and/or cytotoxic antigens in H-RS cells may represent a poor prognostic factor in CHL, even if their expression is not regarded as lineage specific. Examination of T-cell and/or cytotoxic molecules phenotype in CHL patients is recommended as a routine pathologic practice.
