The possibility of a cytogenetic-cytologic correlation with implications in the diagnosis, evolutivity and prognosis of malignant lymphomas was studied. Cytogenetic investigations were carried out comparatively in the lymph node and spleen lymphoid cells from 25 patients with malignant lymphomas and in normal subjects or patients with malignant tumors. The dominant malignant cellular type was found to correspond genotypically to the abnormal clone. In lymphomas with more differentiated cells the chormosomal abnormalities were limited to a single chromosomal group, while in those with less differentiated cells there were many clonal chromozomal abnormalities. The pathogenic significance of an extra-chromosome in the C-group (observed in most of the cases) is discussed.
