Abstract
In lymphoid neoplasia, it has been difficult to distinguish between contaminating lymphoblastoid cells and truly malignant lymphoma cells. Certain cellular markers have been applied for this differentiation. Among these, cytogenetic findings like aneuploidy and marker chromosomes, as well as tumorgenicity in immunodeficient hosts have been proven to be the most valid parameters. This paper deals mainly with the role of cytogenetic markers.
