A clone with an unbalanced translocation t(8;14)(p11;q31), resulting in deletion of the distal part of the long arm of chromosome 14, 14q31 → 14qter, was detected in a case of Piringer's lymphadenitis. Histopathologically no atypical cells or other signs of malignant lymphoma were found. Southern blot analyses showed no rearrangement of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene ( IGH ) or the T‐cell receptor γ chain ( TCRG ) gene. The case exemplifies that the detection of a chromosomally aberrant clone does not necessarily prove that a lymphoproliferative process is malignant. © 1993 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
