title: [Bioptic typing and classification of Hodgkin's lymphomas--status in 1998].
abstract: In the submitted review the authors give an account on the development of views regarding bioptic typing and classification of Hodgkin's lymphomas, incl. the REAL classification and the classification prepared at present by WHO. Hodgkin's lymphomas are divided into the nodular type with a predominance of lymphocytes--nodular paragranuloma and classical Hodgkin's lymphomas. In addition to a brief morphological description, the authors give also an account on immunohistochemical features of different types, short comments on the biology and evolution of tumourous diseases as well as basic data on the differential diagnosis of Hodgkin's lymphomas.
