Nodal T-zone lymphoma and T-zone hyperplasia in dogs

Abstract: T-zone lymphoma (TZL) is an indolent, nodal lymphoma that has been clinically characterized in detail in dogs, and T-zone hyperplasia (TZH) is a hyperplastic change in lymph nodes associated with antigen processing. In some cases, histopathological features of TZL and TZH are similar, and are difficult to differentiate by morphology alone. Since there have been few publications characterizing their immunohistochemical profiles, histological, immunohistochemical, and clonality examinations were performed using … Show more

“…Histologically, TZL is characterized as a diffuse proliferation of small to medium lymphocytes in the paracortical area ( Kojima et al , 2022 ). Usually, cytology is the screening tool for lymphomas, as it is less invasive and has lower costs ( Lima, 2020 ).…”

“…In the case of TZL, the diagnosis can rarely be obtained on cytology, as the presence of a high concentration of small to medium cells with clear and elongated cytoplasm, can also indicate a reactive process in the paracortex region, which appears as a primary response preceding plasma cell proliferation, in cases of chronic dermatitis or in response to certain antigens, such as in cases of leishmaniasis or viral infections ( Comazzi and Riondato, 2021 ). However, a TZL diagnosis can be suspected by the presence of a high concentration of small to medium cells with clear and elongated cytoplasm, resembling a “hand mirror” shape ( Mizutani et al , 2016 ; Kojima et al , 2022 ). In addition to morphological analysis, samples collected by fine needle aspiration are amenable to flow cytometry immunophenotyping.…”
