1. Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma. A
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma. A. At low-power magnification, the neoplasm is vaguely nodular. B. At high-power magnification, large lymphocytic and histiocytic (LH) cells, resembling popped kernels of corn, are identified in a background of reactive lymphocytes and histiocytes. C and D. Immunohistochemical stain for CD20. C. At low-power magnification, this immunostain highlights the nodular pattern and shows numerous B cells in the nodules. D. At high-power magnification, large LH cells and small reactive B cells are positive for CD20. E. Immunohistochemical stain for CD3. Scattered small reactive T cells are present and focally surround the LH cells (so-called rosetting).
