In this prospective study, we correlated cytological grading and clinical follow-up of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) with DNA flow cytometry (FCM) data from fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) material. FNAB was performed from 34 successive cases of NHL, and the aspirated material was analyzed by D
W e read with interest the article published in Cancer earlier this year regarding the elevation of CA 125 in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and its normalization with clinical response. 1 Earlier a case report had also emerged about elevation of CA 125 in a patient within tuberculous peritoni
## Background: Ca 125 is a glycoprotein produced by epithelial ovarian tumors and by mesothelial cells; its levels also have been shown to be elevated in patients with non-hodgkin's lymphoma (nhl). ## Methods: The authors evaluated serum ca 125 levels in patients with nhl to elucidate the frequen
