International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fifty years ago, Zech et al. in this journal described for the first time the t(8;14) as a recurrent chromosomal aberration in Burkitt lymphoma (BL). Nevertheless, in regions where BL is not endemic, a subset of lymphomas with features of BL lacks the t(8;14)/IG::MYC and instead represents high‐grade B‐cell lymphoma with 11q aberration (HGBCL ...
