Disease relevance of Lymphomatoid Granulomatosis

• Circulating levels of IP-10 were abnormally elevated in patients with EBV-positive lymphomatoid granulomatosis and nasal or nasal-type T/NK-cell lymphomas [1].
• Lymphadenopathy, cough, and fever in a 51-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus: case report of lymphomatoid granulomatosis [2].
• Epstein-Barr virus has also been identified by polymerase chain reaction in most cases of lymphomatoid granulomatosis; however, the precise cellular localization of Epstein-Barr virus sequences has not been extensively studied [3].
• A 30-year old male with macular rash and pulmonary lymphomatoid granulomatosis responded to Prednisone terapy but developed acute intracranial hypertension with coma [4].
• Midline malignant reticulosis and lymphomatoid granulomatosis. A case report [5].

High impact information on Lymphomatoid Granulomatosis

• Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is common in the lung but is rarely seen in the midline facial structures [6].
• Lymphomatoid granulomatosis with cerebral involvement. Light and electron microscopic study of a case [7].
• We report the successful and maintained response of lymphomatoid granulomatosis using a new approach to therapy, cyclosporin-A, after failure of aggressive multiagent chemotherapy [8].
• Chest radiograph in lymphomatoid granulomatosis: comparison with Wegener granulomatosis [9].
• Accurate differentiation is essential since treatment of Wegener granulomatosis with cyclophosphamide is highly effective while treatment of lymphomatoid granulomatosis is infrequently successful [9].

Chemical compound and disease context of Lymphomatoid Granulomatosis

• Thoracic gallium uptake in patients with lymphomatoid granulomatosis [10].
• The expression of some adhesion molecules of the integrin family and their ligands was investigated in skin biopsies from a patient with lymphomatoid granulomatosis (LG), who at onset presented cutaneous lesions followed by lung and brain involvement [11].
• Case records of the Department of Medicine University of Mississippi Medical Center. 1) Malignant lymphoma, low-grade, polymorphic. T cell small lymphocytic lymphoma versus lymphomatoid granulomatosis, involving intestines, mesentery, omentum, refroperitoneal lymph nodes, lungs heart, liver, and spleen. 2) Malignant ascites [12].

Anatomical context of Lymphomatoid Granulomatosis

• Nasal T-cell lymphomas represent a controversial subset of malignant lymphomas and include lesions previously termed midline malignant reticulosis, lymphomatoid granulomatosis, and polymorphic reticulosis [13].

Gene context of Lymphomatoid Granulomatosis

• We describe a 12-year-old boy with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome who developed a pulmonary vasculitis associated with lymphoreticular proliferation, consistent with the histological and clinical diagnosis of lymphomatoid granulomatosis [14].
• Three of 14 possible lymphoma cases were EBV ISH positive which, along with appropriate ancillary tests, assisted in making the diagnoses of Burkitt's lymphoma, lymphomatoid granulomatosis and extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma of nasal type [15].
