==Synonyms / Terminology==
 
Follicular Center Lymphoma; Follicle-related B-cell Lymphoma
 
==Epidemiology / Prevalence==
 
Slight male predominance (male-to-female ratio of 1.2:1)
 
Median age at diagnosis is 60-65 years;
 
Progressive increase in incidence between ages 35-70
 
FL is extremely rare in children; considered a separate entity from adult FL
 
~5% of all hematological neoplasms are FL
 
~20% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas are FL<ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last=Ferry|first=Judith A.|date=2010-12-01|title=Recent Advances in Follicular Lymphoma: Pediatric, Extranodal, and Follicular Lymphoma in Situ|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1875918110001133|journal=Surgical Pathology Clinics|series=Current Concepts in Hematopathology|volume=3|issue=4|pages=877–906|doi=10.1016/j.path.2010.08.002|issn=1875-9181}}</ref>
 
Highest incidence in developed/high income countries
 
Second most common lymphoma in the USA and western Europe
 
Most common lymphoma among non-Hispanic white population [2]
 
Environmental exposures to pesticides and herbicides as risk factors are disputed; Hair dye use prior to 1980 is associated with increased risk (meta RR = 1.66) [3, 4].
 
Genetic risk factors may include SNPs within HLA class I or II genes [8] or homozygosity of HLA class II genes [9]; these features have been identified within a few familial cases of FL.

==Clinical Features==
 
Put your text here and fill in the table <span style="color:#0070C0">(''Instruction: Can include references in the table. Do not delete table.'') </span>
 
*FL commonly presents as painless lymphadenopathy<ref name=":12" />
*May wax and wane over years before diagnosis
*Majority of cases have widespread involvement at diagnosis<ref name=":12" />
*Bone marrow involvement in 40-70% of cases at diagnosis
*May not require treatment depending staging and other parameters.

==Morphologic Features==
 
 
Appearance of predominantly follicular pattern
 
Consists of both centrocytes and centroblasts, with the relative proportions of these cells informing grading
 
Grade 1:   0-5 centroblasts/high power field (hpf)
 
Grade 2:  6-15 centroblasts/hpf
 
Grade III: >15 centroblasts/hpf
 
       Grade IIIa:  centrocytes present
 
Grade IIIb:  sheets of centroblasts
 
 
==Immunophenotype==
 
 
Typically, FL is CD10+, BL2+.  Atypical FL subgroups CD10- and/or BCL2 - all FL are STMN+ - useful differentiator between atypical FL and MZL [9]

|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span>
The t(9;22) is diagnostic of CML in the appropriate morphology and clinical context (add reference). This fusion is responsive to targeted therapy such as Imatinib (Gleevec) (add reference). BCR::ABL1 is generally favorable in CML (add reference).

|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> ''CIC''
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> ''CIC::DUX4''
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> Typically, the last exon of ''CIC'' is fused to ''DUX4''. The fusion breakpoint in ''CIC'' is usually intra-exonic and removes an inhibitory sequence, upregulating ''PEA3'' genes downstream of ''CIC'' including ''ETV1'', ''ETV4'', and ''ETV5''.

''DUX4'' has many homologous genes; an alternate translocation in a minority of cases is t(10;19), but this is usually indistinguishable from t(4;19) by short-read sequencing (add references).

==WHO Essential and Desirable Genetic Diagnostic Criteria==
Other fusion partners include ''KIF5B, NPM1, STRN, TFG, TPM3, CLTC, KLC1''
<span style="color:#0070C0">(''Instructions: The table will have the diagnostic criteria from the WHO book <u>autocompleted</u>; remove any <u>non</u>-genetics related criteria. If applicable, add text about other classification'' ''systems that define this entity and specify how the genetics-related criteria differ.'')</span>
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> Fusions result in constitutive activation of the ''ALK'' tyrosine kinase. The most common ''ALK'' fusion is ''EML4::ALK'', with breakpoints in intron 19 of ''ALK''. At the transcript level, a variable (5’) partner gene is fused to 3’ ''ALK'' at exon 20. Rarely, ''ALK'' fusions contain exon 19 due to breakpoints in intron 18.
