Values are no. (%) unless otherwise noted.

BCL2-N indicates no BCL2 gene abnormality by FISH; BCL2-R, BCL2 gene rearrangement or gain by FISH; HPI, high (> 30%) Ki67 proliferation index; LPI: low (< 30%) Ki67 proliferation index.

*

Includes 1 case with 1 extra copy of BCL2 gene by FISH and strong BCL2 expression, as demonstrated by IHC.
