Abstract
The non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of diseases. Cell marker studies over the past 10-15 years have demonstrated that the majority of adult B cell lymphomas are of B lymphocyte origin while a minority are of T lymphocyte origin. They vary in their prognosis according to histologic and clinical features.
