===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''.
*#*If in ''mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue'' known as a ''MALT lymphoma'', [[AKA]] ''MALToma''.
#Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL).
*#Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL).
#Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL).
*#Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL).
 
===Microscopic===
Features:
*Small (lymphoid) cells that may be plasma cell-like (plasmacytoid):<ref>URL: [http://surgpathcriteria.stanford.edu/bcell/marginalnodal/printable.html http://surgpathcriteria.stanford.edu/bcell/marginalnodal/printable.html]. Accessed on: 6 March 2012.</ref>
**+/-Clockface nucleus.
**+/-Eccentric nucleus.

**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>

The MALT1 associated [[translocations]] can be assessed with an [[ISH]] break apart probe for MALT1.
