Classifications for Myeloid and Lymphoid Malignancies: The Pathologists Finally Agree

Drs. Sanam Loghavi and Amer Zeidan delve into the history behind the recent classification split between the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Consensus Classification (ICC) for myeloid and lymphoid malignancies, and how a few years of minor disagreement have culminated in a unified system. They explore the critical differences in how myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms are now categorized, what this alignment means for pathologists, oncologists, regulators, and patients, when the new classification will take effect, and how it is expected to influence research, diagnosis, and clinical care.
