Follicular lymphoma is a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which is a cancer of the lymphatic system. The most common age to be diagnosed with follicular lymphoma is 60-65. It's slightly more common in women than in men. We hope this information answers your questions.
In 2002, we described a series of 25 cases demonstrating abnormal BCL2 expression in follicle centers, associated with fairly preserved tissue architecture and residual reactive germinal centers. 24 The term follicular lymphoma in situ (FLIS) has been proposed for this pattern of in situ localization because the cells exhibited a propensity to be confined to the germinal centers, without evidence of disseminated disease in most patients. Since then, a few case reports and a series of 13 cases have been described.
