[Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (2024)].

ABSTRACT

Primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBL) is an aggressive B-cell lymphoma that is thought to arise from thymic (medullary) B cells and has unique clinicopathologic and molecular features. In recent years, the understanding of the pathogenesis and treatment of PMBL has been updated to varying degrees, particularly in the area of new drug therapy. In order to improve the diagnosis and treatment of PMBL in China, the Lymphocyte Disease Group of the Chinese Medical Association (CMA) and the Anti-Lymphoma Alliance of the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) commissioned a group of experts to formulate this consensus.
