Abstract

Introduction: Bone marrow examination is an integral part of the clinical staging of lymphoma, also prognosis and therapeutic strategies. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and characteristics of bone marrow involvement of B-cell lymphoma on trephine biopsy. Subjects and Methods: Cross section description of B-cell lymphoma from January 2019 to December 2020 at Blood Transfusion Hematology Hospital. The incidence and pattern of bone marrow involvement were analyzed. Results: The frequency of bone marrow involvement of B-cell lymphomas was 64.8%. Bone marrow involvement was present in 80% of low-grade B-cell lymphomas, and 40% of high-grade variants. The highest incidence of bone marrow involvement was seen in LPL and BL (100%) and the lowest was found in DLBCL (25.6%). Diffused pattern of infiltration was predominant (53%), followed by mixed pattern (31%). Typical bone marrow involvement in 50% FL and 10% DLBCL (transformed FL to DLBCL) was characterized by paratrabecular infiltration. Intrasinusoidal infiltration was not detected. The most frequent pattern was mixed pattern (72.2%) found in MZL. Conclusion: The frequency of bone marrow involvement of low-grade B-cell lymphomas was higher than high-grade variants. The pattern of diffuse infiltration was predominantly.
