| lymphoma, mixed-cell | Malignant lymphoma characterised by the presence of a mixed population of cells, with the smaller cells resembling lymphocytes and the larger ones histiocytes. It usually presents in a nodular (follicular) pattern, but may evolve into a diffuse pattern. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| lymphoma, mixed-cell, diffuse | A heterogeneous group of intermediate-grade lymphomas of mixed cellular composition. Although they have not been extensively studied, it appears that they are predominantly B-cell diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lymphoma, mixed-cell, follicular | A low-grade malignant lymphoma of follicular pattern in which there is no clear preponderance of one cell type (small or large) over another. The large cells, cleaved or noncleaved, are often 2-3 times larger in diameter than normal lymphocytes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mastectomy, simple | Removal of only the breast tissue and nipple and a small portion of the overlying skin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| microscope, simple | <microscopy> A microscope that has a single converging lens (or a combination of lenses that function optically as a single converging lens). Anton van leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) made good use of the simple microscope to look at the life within a drop of water, and such. The magnifying properties of lenses had been well known in ancient times (for example to the greeks and romans) but it was not until about 1600 that it became possible to make small lenses with the precision needed to make a microscope.

| simple bone cyst | <radiology> Unicameral or solitary bone cyst, lytic, unilocular, central, meta-diaphyseal, humerus (most common site), age 0 - 10 yrs Differential diagnosis: bubbly bone lesions (12 Dec 1998) |
| simple-central anisocoria | A common (20% of normals) benign inequality of the pupils that may change from one hour to the next. Synonym: essential anisocoria, physiologic anisocoria, simple-central anisocoria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| simple closure | A single layer closure. (27 Sep 1997) |
