Preferred Label : lymphoma, T-Cell, peripheral;
MeSH definition : A group of malignant lymphomas thought to derive from peripheral T-lymphocytes in
lymph nodes and other nonlymphoid sites. They include a broad spectrum of lymphocyte
morphology, but in all instances express T-cell markers admixed with epithelioid histiocytes,
plasma cells, and eosinophils. Although markedly similar to large-cell immunoblastic
lymphoma (LYMPHOMA, LARGE-CELL, IMMUNOBLASTIC), this group's unique features warrant
separate treatment.;
