title: Preliminary clinical findings on the Kiel classification of malignant lymphomas.
abstract: In 75 patients with non-Hodgkin Lymphomas the influence of the histopathological form, as judged by the Kiel classification, on the epidemiology and prognosis of the disease was examined retrospectively. The different forms of the Kiel classification influence in a typical way the age specific incidence rates and the prognosis of the disease.
