Abstract
Abstract Classical Hodgkin’s Disease (HD) is characterized by proliferation of Reed-Sternberg (RS) and Reed-Sternberg-variant cells in an inflammatory background. Although several histopathologic variants are recognized, the RS and RS-variant cells demonstrate a uniform immunophenotype, characterized by CD15 and CD30 positivity and lack of specific B or T cell antigens.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
