Conclusion: There was no statistically significant correlation between CD30 immunoreactivity (cut-off >0% or >20%) and HCV NS3 expression and clinicopathological features (age, sex, Ann Arbor stage, extranodal involvement, lactate dehydrogenase, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group status and morphological variants) in DLBCL. Here, KRAS is linked to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
