“…4,5,12,13 Factors that contribute to this difficulty include heterogeneous morphologic features, lack of demonstrable LCR by FC, and a high number of reactive T-cells intermixed with the malignant B-cell component. 4,5,13,15 In a series of seven FNAB specimens and two bronchial washings, Matsushima et al reported that among all specimens with subsequent histologic confirmation of MZL at the same location as the FNAB, most cytologic specimens were composed of a polymorphous population of intermediate-sized lymphoid cells, transformed cells, and variable numbers of plasma cells. 4 The five FNAB specimens that initially were favored to be reactive showed polymorphous proliferations of lymphoid cells comprising a spectrum of cell sizes, with plasma cells noted in two specimens, findings that we normally associate with reactive processes.…”

“…4,13,15,[21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] Skoog and Tani reported that, with combined cytomorphology and ICC, Ͼ 95% of more than 1000 FNAB specimens from patients with suspected lymphomas could be categorized into reactive or malignant proliferations. 28 Failures were due to such factors as low cellularity, necrosis, and inconclusive cytology or ICC.…”

“…[14][15][16]26,35,36 Metastatic tumors may not be excised, and therefore definitive histological assessment is often lacking. 37 However, it is worth noting that salivary gland metastases may be the initial presentation of patients with occult malignancies. In addition, two cases which were subsequently resected revealed parenchymal infiltration by metastatic carcinoma.…”

Three hundred and forty‐one salivary gland fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) cytology specimens taken over a 6‐yr period were reviewed and correlated with clinical and/or histological findings. The aspirates were derived from parotid gland (212 cases), submandibular gland (124 cases), and minor salivary gland (5 cases). The major diagnostic categories were unsatisfactory (10 cases), normal (100 cases), sialadenitis (74 cases), cyst (34 cases), lipoma (5 cases), pleomorphic adenoma (55 cases), Warthin's tumor (36 cases), and malignancy (27 cases). The latter included 14 primary salivary neoplasms (4 lymphomas of mucosa‐associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type, 3 adenocarcinomas, 2 squamous carcinomas, 2 adenoid cystic cacinomas, and one case each of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma, undifferentiated carcinoma, and high‐grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma), and 13 metastases, 9 of which were derived from squamous carcinomas of head and neck origin. Clinicopathological review showed that 88 of 91 (97%) benign epithelial tumors and 27 of 31 (87%) malignant neoplasms with adequate FNA sampling were accurately diagnosed cytologically. False‐negative results were caused by sampling error (7 cases), most notably in cystic tumors, or were due to misinterpretation of uncommon neoplasms (3 cases). The overall sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 92%, 100%, and 98%, respectively. FNA cytology provides accurate diagnosis of most salivary gland lesions and contributes to conservative management in many patients with nonneoplastic conditions. Diagn.

“…Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) was not instituted in our patients in contrary to last publications which advocate FNAB cytology might achieve accurate diagnosis in more than 90% of NHLs. 8,[24][25][26][27] Because of its rarity, there is no uniform approach for the treatment of malignant lymphoma involving the breast. Treatment modalities of breast lymphomas vary from surgery alone, to surgery followed by radiotherapy, to combination chemotherapy followed by irradiation.…”

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) of the breast can be either primary or secondary. Both are rare diseases accounting less than 0.6% of all breast malignancies. In this study we report our experience with five cases of breast lymphoma, 3 of them being primary and 2 of them being secondary breast lymphoma, retrospectively. All patients were female with a median age of 47 years and presented with breast masses (3 in the right breast and 2 in the left). The histologic subtype showed broad spectrum, one patient had peripheral T-cell lymphoma and 4 patients had B-cell lymphomas; 2 were diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, 1 was a diffuse small B-cell lymphoma, and the last patient was a marginal zone lymphoma. Partial mastectomy was performed in 2 patients to carry out diagnosis. Anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens were employed in 4 patients. Radiotherapy was added to other treatment modalities in 3 cases. At a median follow-up of 5 years, all patients were alive other than one who had been diagnosed with peripheral T-cell lymphoma just after pregnancy and showed resistance to the applied treatment. The treatment and the prognosis of breast lymphomas were not different from the currently indicated for nodal NHL with the same stage and histological subtype. ÖZET Meme Non-Hodgkin Lenffomalar›: Befl Olgu Sunumu ve Literatürün Gözden GeçirilmesiMemede saptanan Non-Hodgkin lenfomalar primer ya da sekonder olabilir. Her ikisi de oldukça nadir olup, meme kanserlerinin yak-lafl›k %0.6's›n› olufltururlar. Bu çal›flmada, klini¤imizde izlenen 3'ü primer, 2'si sekonder meme lenfomas› olan olgular› geriye dönük olarak inceleyerek kendi tecrübelerimizi bildirmek istedik. Bütün hastalar kad›nd› ve ortalama yafl 47 idi. Bütün hastalarda memede kitle flikayeti vard› (3 hastada sa¤, 2 hastada sol). Histolojik alt tipleri genifl bir spektruma sahipti; 1 hastada periferal T hücreli lenfoma, 4 hasta B hücreli lenfoma (2 hasta diffüz büyük B-hücreli, 1 hasta diffüz küçük B-hücreli, 1 hasta marjinal zon lenfoma) olarak tan› ald›. ‹ki hastada tan›sal amaçl› parsiyel mastektomi yap›ld›. 4 Hastada antrasiklin esasl› kemoterapi rejimi uyguland›. Üç hastada tedaviye radyoterapi eklendi. Ortalama 5 y›ll›k takip sonras›, gebelikten hemen sonra periferal T hücreli lenfoma tan›s› alan ve kemoterapiye dirençli olan olgu d›fl›ndaki di¤er 4 olgu hayattayd›. Meme lenfomalar›n›n tedavi ve prognozlar›, ayn› evre ve histolojik tipteki nodal lenfomalardan farkl› de¤ildir.
