A 30-year-old man is complaining of cough, difficulty breathing, and fatigue
that he has had for about a month. The cough is nonproductive and he denies
fever. He attributes his symptoms to his asthma, which he had as a child. He

exam findings are unremarkable except for enlarged tonsils and asymmetrical
facial bone distortion and nontender, enlarged lymph nodes palpated in his head
and neck region. Based on these findings, which type of childhood lymphoma is
the most likely diagnosis?
A) Burkitt lymphoma
B) Large-cell lymphoma
C) Lymphoblastic lymphoma
D) Hodgkin lymphoma - CORRECT ANSWER -Ans: A
Abnormal immunoglobulins known as M proteins and free light chains
produced by plasma cells are characteristic of:
