The 2008 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues has been recently revised, and publication of the updated 2016 version is expected soon. Given that cytopathologists are often involved in the diagnosis of primary, recurrent, and transformed lymphoproliferative disorders, knowledge of updates to the WHO lymphoma classification, including terminology, pathogenesis, ancillary techniques, and targeted therapies is necessary. Herein, we reference the last decade of cytology specific literature for seven newer B‐cell disorders and provide illustrative examples of each entity from our files.
