Working Formulation
The Working formulation is an obsolete classification of non-Hodgkin lymphomas, first proposed in 1982.[1] It has since been replaced by other lymphoma classifications, the latest published by the WHO in 2008, but is still used by cancer agencies for compilation of lymphoma statistics.
