Malignant follicular Lymphoma with small cleaved cell predominant (Low Power)
Malignant follicular Lymphoma with small cleaved cell predominant (Low Power)

A low power view of a malignant lymphoma showing the typical nodular appearance of a follicular center cell lymphoma.
Many of these cells resemble the cells at the center of a germinal follicle, giving the appearance of a series of germinal centers.
However, in contrast to a reactive hyperplasia, no normal lymph node structure is seen in this slide.
Instead, these nodular accumulations of malignant cells replace the entire tissue in this field.
