Significados de moth-eaten pattern en inglés

Patient data from dogs with a moth-eaten pattern within the splenic parenchyma were evaluated separately.

Only one dog displayed a moth-eaten pattern of the splenic parenchyma without diagnosis of a malignant lymphoma.

Additionally, the occurrence of the moth-eaten pattern in the parenchyma of the spleen in patients with diseases other than lymphoma should be investigated.

When a moth-eaten pattern was diagnosed, the affected dogs suffered significantly more often from a multicentric lymphoma (95%) than from any other anatomical lymphoma form.

The positive predictive value of the moth-eaten pattern for malignant lymphoma was 99% and, in particular, for the multicentric lymphoma this was 95%.
