Abstract

Currently it is accepted to distinguish among lymphoproliferative diseases the groupings of lymphomas, leukoses and lymphomas/leukoses (Gantsev 2004). Malignant neoplasms originating from the elements of lymph nodes or extranodal lymphatic tissue are qualified as lymphomas, while leukoses are tumors from peripheric blood cells, and the group of lymphomas-leukoses consists of diseases with both signs. Neoplasms of plasma cells, including myelomatosis and plasmocytoma, are not presently qualified as lymphomas.
