Disease eponyms can be confusing, difficult to remember, scientifically non-robust, and lacking in implications on relationships with cell lineage, histogenesis, pathogenesis. This review is geared toward revisiting hematolymphoid diseases light of recent advances technology science by searching the past fifty years literature using Scopus Google Scholar keywords “eponyms, hematolymphoid, diseases, lymphoma, benign, malignant, lymph node, spleen, liver, bone marrow, leukemia”. With technology, there accumulation information morphologic nuances immunologic, immunophenotypic, genetic features various eponymic thus shedding important issues etiology pathogenesis therapy non-neoplastic (Castleman, Evans syndrome Kikuchi–Fujimoto, IgG4-related diseases) neoplastic (Hodgkin, Burkitt, NK/T-cell lymphomas, dendritic/histiocytic neoplasms, Sezary syndrome) diseases. contributes modern nomenclature, classification, subtyping, prognostication, discoveries new treatment strategies

IgG4 is an unusual immunoglobulin (Ig) and the least component of IgG in humans. It often asymmetrical heterobivalent with weak Fc (fragment crystallizable region)-dependent effector function ineffective complement activation, thus playing unclear role immune functions. IgE uncommon Ig, being important mostly allergy type 2 immunity. There are two rare chronic Ig-related fibroinflammatory diseases, namely IgG4-related disease (IgG4RD) Kimura (KD), characterized by prominent IgG4- or IgE-positive plasma cells affected tissues, without blood elevations same Ig. The etiology these diseases unclear, though it appears that pathogenesis both related to polarized Ig heavy chain isotype switching, concomitant other cellular, cytokine chemotaxin interactions culminates characteristic pathologic manifestations inflammation fibrosis. IgG4RD KD, despite having overlapping differing features, may be connected similar pathogenetic switching.
