They were most frequently used to help distinguish reactive lymphoid infiltrates from low\u2010grade B\u2010cell lymphomas and in cases of possible T\u2010cell lymphoma, facilitating a diagnosis being made in over 90% of these. In contrast when clonality assays were requested as a diagnostic adjunct in cases with an atypical cutaneous lymphoid infiltrate, and in occasional cases of lymphoid proliferations with Hodgkin\u2010like cells or EBV\u2010driven proliferations, a definitive final diagnosis was possible in less than 60% of cases.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Clonality studies were used in 9% of cases assessed for a possible lymphoproliferative disorder and had a differing impact depending on the differential diagnoses being considered. These findings can be used to guide access to clonality assays by highlighting the likelihood of an informative result in different diagnostic settings.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ejh.13228","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,7]],"date-time":"2019-03-07T14:21:15Z","timestamp":1551968475000},"page":"472-478","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The role and contribution of clonality studies in the diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disorders"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"102","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1494-0875","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anna L.","family":"Paterson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Histopathology, Addenbrooke\u2019s Hospital Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Cambridge UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hongxiang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Haematopathology and Oncology Diagnostics Service, Addenbrooke\u2019s Hospital Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Cambridge UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hesham","family":"ElDaly","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Haematopathology and Oncology Diagnostics Service, Addenbrooke\u2019s Hospital Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Cambridge UK"},{"name":"Clinical Pathology Department Cairo University Cairo Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/cyto.b.21118"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.leu.2403202"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","unstructured":"Standards for specialist laboratory and dataset for the histopathological reporting of lymphomas.
