A collar of small lymphocytes intimately surrounds the cell and an eosinophil is visible to the right of the Reed-Sternberg cell (hematoxylin and eosin, × 60). C. Hodgkin's cells demonstrated by CD15 staining (immunoperoxidase, × 60). D. Hodgkin's cells demonstrated by CD30 immunohistochemical study (immunoperoxidase, × 60). (Courtesy of Dr. A. Mowat) |
