Pathologists! Per WHO 5th edition, the term “hairy cell leukemia variant” is eliminated; most such cases are now classified as splenic B cell lymphoma/leukemia with prominent nucleoli (SBLLPN). Here is an example of SBLLPN.

Pathologists are omitted, as usual. Same story everywhere. We think we are part of the "multidisciplinary team" but not everyone thinks of us like that. NPs, RTs and PharmDs are included (as they should be!) but not pathologists (or even radiologists)
