Hodgkin lymphoma transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma.

We report a case of CLL/SLL in which a transformation to Hodgkin lymphoma occurred, and we review previously published reports of this transformation. Transformation to Hodgkin lymphoma in CLL/SLL has a poor outcome compared to de novo cases of Hodgkin lymphoma. PMID: 23382602 [PubMed]
