The World Health Organization (WHO) classification of lymphomas updated in 2008 represents an international consensus for diagnosis of lymphoid neoplasms based on the recognition of distinct disease entities by applying a constellation of clinical and laboratory features. The 2008 classification has refined and clarified the definitions of well-recognized diseases, identified new entities and variants, and incorporated emerging concepts in the understanding of lymphoid neoplasms. Rather than being a theoretical scheme this classification has used data from published literature. Recent knowledge of molecular pathways has led to identification and development of new diagnostic tools, like gene expression profiling, which could complement existing technologies.  However, some questions remain unresolved, such as the extent to which specific genetic or molecular alterations define certain tumors. In general, practical considerations and economics preclude a heavily molecular and genetic approach. The significance of early or precursor lesions and the identification of certain lymphoid neoplasms is less clear at present, but understanding is evolving. The borderline categories having overlapping features with large B-cell lymphomas, as well as some of the provisional entities, are subject to debate and lack consensus in management. Lastly, the sheer number of entities may be overwhelming, especially, for the diagnosing pathologist, who do not see enough of these on a regular basis.
