2 Mediastinal B-cell Lymphomas Nodular sclerosis Hodgkin Lymphoma Mediastinal grey zone lymphoma Primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma Shared clinical features Mediastinal presentation (typically localized) Young age at presentation (3 rd -4 th decade) Predominance in young women Favorable prognosis

3 Mediastinal Lymphomas Molecular Overlap PMBL and NS-Hodgkin Lymphoma

4 Mediastinal Lymphomas Molecular Overlap PMBL and NS-Hodgkin Lymphoma

5 IHC Phenotype of Thymic B-cell Lymphomas Neg CD20 CD15 Neg CD30 Tumor Density
