A single-center retrospective review of pediatric cases of progressive transformation of germinal centers.

Patients with PTGC had similar age and involved lymph node sites to those from previous case series. Fewer patients underwent recurrent lymph node biopsy than previously described. PTGC has been linked to certain types of lymphoma, although never definitively associated with lymphoma. Follow-up with a PHO provider is indicated to ensure that close surveillance is performed.
