Abstract
A large noncleaved diffuse follicular center cell lymphoma occurring in an 11-year-old child with homozygous beta thalassemia is described. The possible relationship between numerous blood transfusions during a 10-year period and the occurrence of a B-cell lymphoma is discussed.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
