“…A male predominance has been noted in most series, in the range of 57%-88% [5,[12][13][14][15][16][17], contrasting with DLBCL, which occurs roughly equally in men and women [1]. Several series have suggested a propensity of T/HRBCL to present with advanced Ann Arbor stage, multiple extranodal sites, and an elevated lactate dehydrogenase level (LDH), though these differences were not significant from traditional DLBCLs in two small case-controlled analyses (Table 1) [ 5,10,12,14,15,17,18]. Most series suggest, however, that T/HRBCL infiltrates the spleen, liver, and bone marrow with greater frequency than DLBCL (Table 1).…”
