Abstract :
The authors studied cytogenetically a case of CD30+ anaplastic large cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma previously diagnosed as malignant histiocytosis and detected a translocation involving chromosomes 1 and 5, t(1;5)(q32;q35). After comparing their findings with those from reports in the literature, they comment about the importance of breakpoint q35 on chromosome 5 and point out the importance of associating morphologic, immunoperoxidase, and cytogenetic findings to confirm the diagnosis of this tumor.
