Abstract

In our series of 134 patients with a diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and clonal chromosomal abnormalities, three were found to show an identical t(3;22)(q28;q11) translocation. All were old patients with isolated lymphadenomegaly and diffuse large noncleaved cell lymphoma. All expressed a B cell immunophenotype, and all entered a complete remission when treated with aggressive chemotherapy. This translocation could, therefore, delineate a particular subtype of diffuse large cell NHL.
