Lymphoma is the most frequent malignant tumor of the ocular adnexa with the most common histologic type being extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (EMZL) of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma). Here we report a case of a 28 year-old male who presented with a left conjunctival mass of one year duration. A diagnosis of primary MALT lymphoma of the conjunctiva was made based on morphologic and immunopheno-typic studies. Chromosome analysis revealed a male karyotype with a translocation t (5;11) (q33;p11.2) as the primary chromosomal abnormality, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first reported translocation in MALT lym-phomas and ocular MALT lymphomas as well. 相似文献

Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue type (MALT lymphoma) usually lacks CD5 expression. Herein is described two cases of CD5-positive MALT lymphoma of ocular adnexal origin. The differential diagnosis between CD5-positive MALT lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), notably cyclin D1-negative MCL, was difficult because both cases consisted histologically of small to medium-sized cells with diffuse or vaguely nodular growth pattern, and the neoplastic cells were positive for CD5 and negative for cyclin D1. Somatic mutation analysis of the immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (VH) gene in case 1 found a relatively higher mutation frequency (5.0%), which was not definitive to rule out MCL. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on paraffin-embedded section using IgH/cyclin D1 (CCND1) probe showed that in both cases there was no molecular evidence of t(11;14), finally leading to the diagnosis of CD5-positive MALT lymphoma. Although the present two patients had no recurrence over 34 months after initial diagnosis, careful observation is needed because the clinicopathological significance of MALT lymphoma with this rare phenotype remains obscure. 相似文献

Two translocations involving the MALT1 gene have been described in extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of MALT type. A t(11;18)(q21;q21) involving API2 and MALT1 occurs in a subset of MALT lymphomas but with only rare exception is absent in diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL), even at MALT sites. More recently, a t(14;18)(q32;q21) involving IGH and MALT1 has been described in nongastric extranodal MALT lymphomas. This translocation is indistinguishable from the IGH-BCL2 translocation by using classical cytogenetics. We report the IGH-MALT1 translocation in a cutaneous DLBCL as shown by classical cytogenetics and molecular cytogenetic analysis. This is the first report of an IGH-MALT1 translocation in DLBCL. These findings indicate that MALT1 translocations are not restricted to indolent-appearing lymphomas, provide further evidence that API2-MALT1 and IGH-MALT1 translocations exhibit biologic differences, have implications regarding the pathogenesis of some extranodal DLBCL, and emphasize that a t(14;18)(q32;q21) cannot be assumed to reflect a BCL2 translocation. 相似文献

Primary non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas of the conjunctiva are uncommon. They are almost exclusively extranodal marginal zone B-cell
lymphomas/mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas. In this study, we report an extremely rare case of conjunctival mantle
cell lymphoma in a 78-year-old man, presenting as a unilateral epibulbar mass. 相似文献

Significance of C4d deposition in the follicular lymphoma and MALT lymphoma and their relationship with follicular dendritic cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We evaluated the deposition of C4d in follicular lymphomas (FL) and extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma). Deposition of C4d was detected in 118 lymphoma tissues from patients with lymphoma and in 20 reactive hyperplasia lymphadens (RHL) using immunohistochemistical methods. FL, MALT lymphoma, and RHL were studied using double staining for CD35/C4d and Bcl-2/C4d. We studied 26 FL tissues, 19 of which showed C4d deposition. C4d deposition was detected around the follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) in the neoplastic follicles. There was no significant difference between the positive ratio of C4d and the grades of FL. We studied 12 MALT lymphoma tissues, six of which displayed C4d deposition. In these tissues, C4d deposition was detected in the peripheral region of partially colonized follicles in the form of an irregular ring, but was not found in the central region. C4d deposition was negative in completely colonized follicles. There was no C4d deposition in diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, mantle cell lymphomas, B-small lymphocytic lymphomas, T-lymphoblastic lymphomas, peripheral T-cell lymphomas, and anaplastic large cell lymphomas. C4d around the FDCs in the neoplastic follicles was a specific indicator for FL. C4d deposition in partially colonized follicles of MALT lymphoma was completely different from that in neoplastic follicles of FL, forming a key point for differential diagnosis. 相似文献

We report on the case of a 52-year-old male presenting with an extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of the mucosa-associated tissue (MALT lymphoma) in the lung 11 years after radiotherapy for a MALT lymphoma of the lacrimal gland, which was primarily diagnosed as dacryoadenitis. Both tumors were investigated by immunohistochemistry and molecular techniques demonstrating their clonal genetic relationship. Both harbored the t(14;18)(q32;q21) and a trisomy 3 and showed identical immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene rearrangements. At the time of pulmonary relapse, clonal CD20- and CD43-positive bone marrow B lymphocytes were detected as well. The elaboration of this case emphasizes the importance of the combined use of modern diagnostic methods for establishment of correct diagnosis of MALT lymphomas at late relapses, which is essential for proper patient management. 相似文献

AIM: We report a case of mantle cell lymphoma masquerading as a marginal zone cell lymphoma. METHODS AND RESULTS: In the initial manifestation in the palatine tonsils, the neoplastic cells were found to grow exclusively within the marginal zones of secondary follicles which showed a preserved mantle zone. The few immunostains performed showed a B-cell phenotype including an immunoglobulin light chain restriction. The extranodal manifestation, the growth pattern, and the immunophenotype led to the diagnosis of an extranodal marginal zone B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). The specimen from the relapse occurring 8 months later exhibited diffuse monomorphous cells co-expressing B-cell antigens and CD5, CD43 and cyclin D1, leading to the diagnosis of mantle cell lymphoma. Re-investigation of the initial biopsy revealed that the neoplastic cells within the marginal zones had a mantle cell lymphoma immunophenotype expressing cyclin D1, the immunoglobulin heavy chains IgD and IgM and partly CD5. Both lesions harboured identical clonal immunoglobulin gene rearrangements proving that they represented different manifestations of the same lymphoma. CONCLUSION: This case emphasizes the importance of broad immunohistological investigation of B-cell NHLs involving the marginal zone. 相似文献

As defined in the proposed World Health Organization classification of neoplastic diseases of the hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues, the small B-cell lymphomas include B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia / small lymphocytic lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type, nodal marginal zone lymphoma, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, and splenic marginal zone B-cell lymphoma. These neoplasms are recognized mostly on the basis of their histopathologic features, but ancillary studies are useful in confirming and sometimes making the diagnosis. Clinically, the small B-cell lymphomas of lymph nodes and spleen (but not those of MALT type) are usually disseminated at diagnosis and considered incurable. With the exception of mantle cell lymphoma, however, they are generally indolent. The small B-cell lymphomas are among the best examples of how malignant lymphomas can be related to the normal immune system. Although uncertainties exist, these lymphomas are generally considered the neoplastic equivalents of normal B-cell compartments. From a molecular perspective, mantle cell and follicular lymphomas are the best characterized. In both cases, there are characteristic chromosomal translocations involving the immunoglobulin heavy chain and the cyclin D1 or bcl-2 genes, respectively, that are probably followed by additional molecular events leading to overt neoplasia. Variable proportions of the small B-cell lymphomas undergo transformation that might be associated with abnormalities in tumor suppressor genes / cell cycle regulatory proteins. After a brief review of normal B-cell development, the major small B-cell lymphomas (except for those of MALT type) will be discussed in terms of their morphologic features, immunophenotype (including paraffin-section immunostaining), genotype, karyotype, and clinical features, including disease evolution. 相似文献

Marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (MCL) of extranodal, nodal and splenic origin appear to be different lymphoma entities with a similar growth pattern in the marginal zone of the B-follicles. Decisive for the detection of MCL as a distinct lymphoma entity was the "MALT concept" for lymphoid infiltrates in the gastric and intestinal mucosa as described by Isaacson et al. in the 1980's. Immunohistological stainings for the immunoglobulin light and heavy chains and molecular pathological studies of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene configuration have subsequently confirmed the neoplastic nature of the extranodal infiltrates and differentiated marginal zone cells from mantle zone cells. In 1994, the MCL of MALT type as well as of nodal and splenic origin were included in the REAL classification and in 1998 in the new WHO classification for lymphomas. Meanwhile extranodal MCL of MALT-type have been observed in almost every organ and site of the body, by far most frequently in the gastric mucosa. Beside the typical growth pattern, lymphoepithelial lesions are a distinct diagnostic feature of extranodal MCL. Clinically, the small cell extranodal MCL show a very good prognosis with regression after treatment. As for nodal and splenic MCL, we need further studies to evaluate the prognostic aspects and to compare them with other B-cell lymphomas. The same is true for primary extranodal large B-cell lymphomas or blastic transformation to a large cell lymphoma; in these tumors the diagnosis of a MALT type lymphoma should only be made if a small cell component with MALT-specific criteria can be proved. 相似文献

We report a case of extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) in a 75-year-old woman with a neuropathy related to high levels of serum immunoglobulin M and a history of rheumatoid arthritis and polymyositis. The patient developed a mass in the right submandibular salivary gland, and this mass demonstrated histopathologic features that are typical of MALT lymphoma, including infiltrates of small monocytoid B cells in the epithelium (forming “lymphoepithelial lesions”), a reactive background of florid germinal center hyperplasia, and follicular colonization by the monocytoid B cells. Many plasma cells in the background expressed cytoplasmic immunoglobulin M lambda, matching the serum spike. Flow cytometric analysis confirmed the presence of clonal mature B cells; however, unlike most MALT lymphomas, these cells coexpressed dim CD5. Clinical staging revealed evidence of systemic distribution with documented disease involving the bone marrow, the lung, and a paratracheal lymph node. Analysis of this unusual systemic MALT lymphoma, and a comparison with similar examples from the literature, illuminates relationships among MALT lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. 相似文献

t(11;18)(q21;q21) Translocation and trisomy 3 are the most common chromosomal aberrations reported in low-grade mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. The current study aims to investigate the frequency of these chromosomal aberrations in a series of 52 extranodal B-cell lymphomas. The tumours were categorised into three histological grades: grade 1 (low-grade lymphoma of MALT type), grade 2 [diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with MALT component] and grade 3 (DLBCL without MALT component). Fluorescence in situ hybridisation analyses on paraffin tissue sections were performed using a locus-specific probe for the 18q21 region and a centromeric probe for chromosome 3. The 18q21 rearrangement was detected in 9 of 40 (23%) cases, including 7 of 23 (30%) grade-1 and 2 of 11 (18%) grade-3 tumours. Amplification of the 18q21 region was detected in 10 of 40 (25%) cases, and trisomy 3 was detected in 9 of 34 (26%) cases. Amplification of the 18q21 region may be an important alternative pathogenetic pathway in MALT lymphoma and was found almost exclusively in tumours without 18q21 rearrangement. Our study showed that tumours with 18q21 rearrangement and 18q21 amplification develop along two distinct pathways, and the latter was more likely to transform into high-grade tumours upon acquisition of additional genetic alterations, such as trisomy 3. Trisomy 3 was more frequently found in coexistence with 18q21 abnormalities, suggesting that it was more likely to be a secondary aberration. 相似文献

Expression of CD43 by B cells is often used as a diagnostic criterion in favor of a B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, including small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, precursor B-lymphoblastic lymphoma, and a subset of marginal zone B-cell lymphomas. Benign B cells generally do not coexpress CD43. The authors analyzed 20 biopsies of the terminal ileum for nonneoplastic disease for expression of CD43 and compared them with other sites and with CD20, CD138, and CD3 reactivity. The majority of cases (85%) showed strong coexpression of CD43 by benign perifollicular B cells. The presence of CD43 coexpression in B-cell populations of the terminal ileum, including those of Peyer's patches, should not be used as a diagnostic parameter to differentiate extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of MALT type from reactive processes. 相似文献

Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) is a low-grade B cell lymphoma that can affect any organ, usually preceded by acquisition of MALT in response to antigenic stimulus provided by infections or autoimmune diseases. Most often, MALT lymphoma involves the stomach (about 35% of cases), followed by the ocular adnexal region, skin, lungs, and salivary glands, but virtually any extranodal site can be involved. MALT lymphomas are less common at sites of normal MALT tissue, such as Waldeyer ring and the ileocecal region of the gastrointestinal tract. Lymphomas involving the tongue are extremely rare and represent approximately 3% of all lymphomas involving the head and neck region. In this study, we discuss potentially challenging diagnostic aspects of MALT lymphoma involving the tongue and review and summarize the available literature about this topic. 相似文献

Composite marginal zone B-cell lymphoma and classical Hodgkin's lymphoma: a clinicopathological study of 12 cases 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
AIMS: Classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL) rarely coexists as composite lymphoma with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL). We characterized 12 cases of composite marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZBL) and cHL by immunohistochemistry and molecular biology. METHODS AND RESULTS: Eight patients had gastric MZBL of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)-type, in five cases with a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma component. Concurrent cHL was observed either in the stomach wall, regional, or distant lymph nodes. One patient each had composite pulmonary/thyroid MZBL of MALT-type and cHL. In two cases, nodal composite MZBL and cHL was observed. cHL displayed features of mixed cellularity type in 10 cases, while in two cases only scattered Hodgkin- and Reed-Sternberg (H/RS) cells were noted. H/RS cells expressed CD30, multiple myeloma oncogene 1 protein (MUM1P), p53 (100%), CD15 (58%), CD20 (58%) and Epstein-Barr virus-associated LMP1 (50%). No t(11;18)(q21;q21) was detected in composite MZBL of MALT-type and cHL. CONCLUSIONS: MZBL and cHL may occur as composite lymphoma, possibly reflecting clonal lymphoma progression. Derivation from extranodal MZBL of MALT-type should be excluded in cases in which a diagnosis of primary extranodal cHL is considered. 相似文献

Marginal zone B cell lymphomas (MZBCLs) represent a category of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma which may arise in a wide variety of extranodal organs where they are termed low grade B cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT). MZBCLs may involve primarily lymph nodes and or spleen where they are designated monocytoid B cell lymphoma or splenic marginal zone lymphoma, respectively. Recognition of this category of lymphoma, in particular, extranodal MALT lymphoma, is clinically significant in determining optimal therapy. Although there have been recent case reports describing the cytologic findings in low grade MALT lymphoma in various extranodal organs, this category of lymphoma has not been widely recognized or discussed in the cytology literature. The cytologic findings in seven fine-needle aspirations and two bronchial washings of histologically confirmed marginal zone lymphoma (five extranodal MALT lymphomas and four nodal marginal zone lymphomas) are described. In all of the cases, the cytologic specimens showed a polymorphous proliferation comprising a predominant population of intermediate sized lymphoid cells with centrocyte-like or monocytoid features, transformed cells, and variable numbers of plasma cells. These findings, while highly suggestive of MALT lymphoma in extranodal proliferations, may be more difficult to distinguish from reactive conditions in lymph nodes. 相似文献
