title: [Differential diagnosis of lymphomas].
abstract: Quality of diagnosis in lymphoma is mostly conditioned by quality of initial biopsy. Fixed sections and immunohistochemistry are mandatory but frozen sections, molecular analysis and chromosomal studies are highly recommended. The goal of initial disease assessment is to determine prognostic factors that will guide treatment decision.
