Summary
Thirteen cases of large cell lymphocytoma are reviewed. All cases are alive or dead free of lymphoma. The histology and immunoreactivity of B cells. Peripheral or small central masses of T cells are present. The microscopic and clinical findings suggest that this tumor is a benign lymphadenoid proliferation which is readily treated by X-ray or surgery.
