Flow-Cytometry in the Diagnosis of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Based on Stomach Tissue Samples: A Case Report

Morphology and immunohistochemistry on node, tissue, and bone marrow biopsies are frequently used in lymphoma diagnosis to characterize the stage and subtype of diseases. Multicolor flow cytometry technology is a novel technique for the analysis of immunological markers to identify lymphoma on fresh tissue when immunohistochemical staining is ambiguous. We report a case of a patient diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma by flow cytometry on a stomach tissue biopsy.
