ABSTRACT
Since the publication in 2017 of the revised 4th Edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of haematolymphoid tumours, here referred to as WHO-HAEM4, significant clinicopathological, immunophenotypic and molecular advances have been made in the field of lymphomas, contributing to refining the diagnostic criteria of several diseases, upgrading entities previously defined as provisional and identifying new entities. This process has resulted in two recent classification proposals of lymphoid neoplasms the International Consensus Classification (ICC) and the 5th edition of the WHO classification (WHO-HAEM5). In this paper, we review and compare the two classifications in terms of diagnostic criteria and entity definition, focusing on T-cell lymphomas and histiocytic/dendritic cell tumours. Moreover, we update the genetic data of the various pathological entities. The main goal is to provide a tool to facilitate the work of the pathologists, haematologists and researchers involved in the diagnosis and treatment of these haematological malignancies.
