Primary follicular lymphoma of the epididymis positive for t(14;18)(q32;q21)/IGH-BCL2 and negative for BCL2 protein expression: a case report
INTRODUCTION Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) can involve the paratesticular organs as the primary disease, as primary testicular lymphoma that secondarily involves the paratesticular structures, as the initial site of presentation of occult nodal disease or as the result of disease dissemination. Primary follicular lymphoma of the epididymis in an adult is extremely rare. Little is known about prima...
متن کاملDetection of clonal CD34+19+ progenitors in bone marrow of BCL2-IgH-positive follicular lymphoma patients.
The frequent occurrence of BCL2-IgH rearrangements in follicular lymphoma (FL) makes detection of low numbers of tumor cells possible by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The presence of BCL2-IgH in the bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood of many FL patients at the time of autografting has led to the suggestion that selection of the CD34-enriched fraction may lead to reinfusion of lower number...
متن کاملComposite Follicular Lymphoma and CD5-Positive Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma.
Composite CD10-positive low-grade B-cell and CD5-positive low-grade B-cell lymphoma is extremely rare. We report a case of a composite follicular lymphoma (FL) and CD5-positive nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) in a resected inguinal lymph node of a 72-year-old Japanese male. Histologically, multiple follicles had reactive-germinal centers with tingible body macrophages, a thin mantle zone an...
متن کاملInter- and intratumoral heterogeneity of BCL2 correlates with IgH expression and prognosis in follicular lymphoma
Most follicular lymphomas (FLs) are genetically defined by the t(14;18)(q32;q21) translocation that juxtaposes the BCL2 gene to the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) 3' regulatory regions (IgH-3'RRs). Despite this recurrent translocation, FL cases are heterogeneous in terms of intratumoral clonal diversity for acquired mutations and variations in the tumor microenvironment. Here we describe an a...
متن کاملCD10-MUM1+ follicular lymphoma lacks BCL2 gene translocation and shows characteristic biologic and clinical features.
CD10 and MUM1 are representative B cell differentiation markers. Follicular lymphoma (FL) is usually positive for CD10 and negative for MUM1. In this study, however, we compared 22 FLs with peculiar phenotype CD10-MUM1+ with 119 typical CD10+MUM1- FLs. All CD10-MUM1+ FL patients exhibited follicular structure with follicular dendritic meshwork, and a high rate of somatic hypermutation and ongoi...
