Abstract

The Ki-1 monoclonal antibody recognizes a specific membrane antigen of activated lymphoid cells and stains large-cell non Hodgkin's lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease. Thus, it is widely used in the diagnosis of anaplastic lymphomas. Morphologically, the Ki-1 monoclonal non Hodgkin's lymphoma are diffuse of multifocal either classical or cell anaplastic type. The clinical behaviour is similar to the rest of the high grade lymphomas, disseminated at diagnosis but may reach remission after aggressive chemotherapy. The immunophenotype showed T, B or null nature of the latter. The clinical and pathological results of our study carried out in a group of 21 cases ki-1 positive lymphomas is herewith reported.
