Primary Uveal Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Preferred Label : Primary Uveal Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma;

NCIt synonyms : Uveal Reactive Lymphoid Hyperplasia; Primary Uveal Lymphoma;

NCIt definition : An indolent, low-grade B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that arises from the choroid, iris, or ciliary body. It is characterized by the presence of a diffuse infiltrate of small, round lymphocytes. Lymphoid follicles with germinal centers may be present. In the past these tumors were termed 'reactive lymphoid hyperplasia'. Now they are considered low-grade B-cell lymphomas, most commonly extranodal marginal zone lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue.;

Neoplastic status : Malignant;
