2019 CSHP/SH Joint Workshop Presentations

The 1st Joint Chinese Society for Hematopathology (CSHP) and Society for Hematopathology (SH) Workshop took take place on October 19 – 20, at the Gran Meliá Hotel in Xi'an, China. The topic of the Joint Workshop was "Infectious agent-associated lymphoid proliferations". Unique to this Joint Workshop, there was a session designated for Multidisciplinary Case Discussions. This Joint Workshop was a historic event, which symbolized the beginning of scientific collaborations between the two societies.

The Workshop focused on the following goals and overarching objectives:

1). Illustrate overlapping features and diagnostic challenges of IALP, including borderline conditions between reactive lymphoproliferations and lymphomas, as well as various subtypes of infectious agent-associated lymphomas;

2). Elucidate and expand the diagnostic criteria set by the current WHO classification systems;

3). Recognize host susceptibility factors including molecular markers in the development and progression of IALP;

4). Develop consensus recommendations in approaches of distinguishing highly aggressive IALP from indolent forms, including conditions related to chronic active EBV infections.
