Connect Sign InBenign Mimics of Hematopoietic Neoplasms
Benign lymph node conditions may pose a significant diagnostic challenge. Although many morphologic features of the benign lymphadenopathies can overlap with the neoplastic processes, their distinction is essential. This presentation will address common diagnostic dilemmas and share a practical approach to resolve them. This case-based presentation of clinically relevant non-infectious lymphadenopathies can be particularly beneficial to the general pathologists and hematopathologists.
