From this report it is not entirely clear if the multiple\" lymphomas\" deseribed were infeetious or if they were eonsis- te nt with what we now mean by \"malignant lymphoma. \" Today, the term \"malignant lymphoma\" is generally used eolleetively for malignant lymphoproliferative neoplasms that tend to arise in lymph nodes and also eneompasses Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The adjeetive \"malignant\" seems somewhat superfluous sinee, in addition to Bill- roth's original eonnotation, the sense of malignaney is nowadays read into the word \"lymphoma. \" To be sure, true, i. e., malignant, lymphomas have to be differentiated from \"pseudolymphomas,\" or to put it more exaetly, \"pseudomalignant lymphomas. \" In this book, \"lymphoma\" and \"malignant lymphoma\" are used interehan- geably for malignant neoplastie lymphoproliferative disorders, and \"pseudo- lymphoma\" is used for benign lymphomatous proeesses. Our editorial eonsultant, Dr. M. Leider, disagrees with all of this. In his Dictionary of Dermatological Words, Terms, and Phrases  421] and other works, he maintains that there is no etymologieal basis for words bearing the eontrived suffix\" -oma\" or the true Greek suffix\" -ma\" to denote malignaney.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e H.
