Abstract

This manuscript represents a review of lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoblastic lymphoma), acute leukemias of ambiguous lineage, mixed-phenotype acute leukemias, myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and defining gene rearrangements, histiocytic and dendritic neoplasms, and genetic tumor syndromes of the 5th edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues. The diagnostic, clinicopathologic, cytogenetic, and molecular genetic features are discussed. The differences in comparison to the 4th revised edition of the World Health Organization classification of hematolymphoid neoplasms are highlighted.
