Abstract

The basic principles of lymphoma classification(s) in general have been widely evolving in a course of decades of years wiht the use of contemporary resources and recent cutting edges in hematooncology on a clinical, morphological and molecular level bring new possibilities not only in improvements of diagnostic and prognostic algorithms and also bear new opportunities in so called targeted and tailored strategies of lymphoma therapy. The pathogenesis and biologic behavior of lymphoproliferations and even lymphomas should be studied in a context of lymphocytic and (neoplastic) lymphoid stage and chronologic development. In a current more complex insight into lymphoproliferations we would like to describe huge heterogeneity of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in relationship to mandatory WHO classification since 2008 and the next development of knowledge in this field with potential new influence on an advancement of both classification and therapy.
