===General===
{{Main|Marginal zone lymphoma}}
*Abbreviated as ''MZL''.
*Arise in the context chronic infections, e.g. [[Sjögren disease]] ([[salivary gland]]), [[Hashimoto thyroiditis]] ([[thyroid gland]]), [[Helicobacter pylori gastritis]] ([[stomach]]).<ref name=Ref_PCPBoD8_326>{{Ref PCPBoD8|326}}</ref>


===Classification===
Classification:
*Comes in three different flavours:
#Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma.
*#Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma.
#*If in ''mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue'' known as a ''MALT lymphoma'', [[AKA]] ''MALToma''.

**Features:
**# Cluster of lymphocytes - three cells or more - '''key feature'''.
**#* Single lymphocytes don't count.
**# Clearing around the lymphocyte cluster.
**Not specific for MALT lymphoma, i.e. may be seen in other types of lymphoma.<ref>DB. 6 August 2010.</ref>
