If multiple phenotypes are listed under a single alteration, it indicates that they can coexist within the same person. Coexisting B-lineage malignancies may harbor the same immunoglobulin (Ig) rearrangement or different Ig rearrangements. Composite B-cell malignancies are a subset of the former found within the same tumor mass. Histiocytic/dendritic cell neoplasms have been observed with a variety of B-cell and T-cell malignancies in addition to follicular lymphoma.
