In this series of 426 consecutively ascertained, karyotypically abnormal non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs) derived from 407 patients, a t(9;14)(p13;q32) was encountered in 7 cases; an additional case demonstrated t(9;14)(p1?3;q32). At the time of detection of t(9;14), four cases were small lymphocytic lymphomas with plasmacytoid features; in three of these the t(9;14) was the sole karyotypic abnormality. In two cases of large-cell NHL demonstrating t(9;14), retrospective review of prior lymph node biopsies showed the presence of a small lymphocytic lymphoma of the plasmacytoid subtype. The remaining two cases comprised a large-cell lymphoma of the brain and a follicular NHL. Thus, six of eight cases (75%) had an initial identical low-grade histology. Immunohistochemical analysis of six cases showed no reactivity with CD1, CD2, CD4, CD5, CD8, and CD10 and high reactivity with CD19 and CD20. All four lymphocytic lymphomas and one of the two large-cell NHLs showed cytoplasmic Ig, consistent with plasmacytoid differentiation. Of the eight cases in this series, six presented with or developed stage IV disease; all were characterized by a 6-month to 5-year clinical phase of indolent disease before treatment was instituted. All five patients with low-grade NHL at the time of cytogenetic analysis were alive with recurrent disease at 3-year median follow-up. The remaining three patients with large-cell diffuse histologies relapsed after intensive therapy and expired at a median of 3 years from diagnosis; two of these showed previous or metachronous small lymphocytic tumors. These results suggest a novel biologically distinct subset of NHL; a neoplasm of mature B lymphocytes with plasmacytoid differentiation, characterized by t(9;14); and an indolent presentation followed by gradual clinical progression of disease.

Clinicopathological analyses of 6 cases of mantle zone lymphoma (MZL) were carried out. The median age of the patients was 62 years with a range of 41 to 71 years and the male-to-female ratio was 1:1. Superficial lymph node (LN) swelling was present only in 2 patients. Giant LN swellings of the mesenteric or inguinal regions were present in 4, and bone marrow involvement by lymphoma cells in 5. Serum protein electrophoresis revealed a monoclonal protein of IgM kappa type in 2 patients. One of these also had polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia. An immunohistochemical study of 6 patients revealed LN-1-(-)+, LN-2+(-)++, sIgM+, sIgD+, CALLA +/-(-)+, DRC-1+(-)++. The immunohistochemical features of the cases were similar to those of small lymphocytic lymphoma or follicular lymphoma. Only 1 patients out of 6 achieved complete remission. Two patients died, one of pneumonia after chemotherapy and the other of cancer. The others were alive 4 to 100 months after the diagnoses. Although giant LN swelling and bone marrow involvement of lymphoma cells which were refractory to treatments were frequently observed, we consider MZL to be a slowly progressive and low-grade type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

The pathologic, immunologic, and clinical features of five cases of B-zone small lymphocytic lymphoma (BZSLL), characterized by a nondestructive growth pattern with a selective and complete replacement of the B-zone areas of lymph nodes, were examined. These findings were compared with those of 13 cases of intermediate differentiated lymphoma/mantle zone lymphoma (ILL/MZL) and 20 cases of typical small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia (SLL/CLL). B-zone SLL was characterized histologically by a deceptively benign pattern at a low magnification, the lymph node architecture being substantially preserved, in contrast to the ILL/MZL and SLL/CLL cases, in which complete effacement of the normal architecture usually could be observed. Moreover, in BZSLL the cellular population was rather uniform and lacked either a prolymphocytic component or the small-cleaved lymphoid cells often seen in SLL/CLL and ILL/MZL cases, respectively. The phenotypic profile of the BZSLL clonal cell population studied by the immunoperoxidase method and by single- and double-labeling flow cytometric analyses (SIg+, CD19+, CD20+, CD21+, CD22+, CD24+, CD35+, CD37+, CD74+, CD45+, CD45R+, MB2+, HLA-DR+, Leu-8+, CD9+/-, CDw75+/-, CD5-/+, CD23-/+, CD10-, FMC7-, PCA-1-, CD25-, CD38-, CD43-, CD3-) appeared to be fairly homogeneous and sufficiently distinct from that of ILL/MZL, based on the absence of FMC7 and CD38 molecules, and from that of SLL/CLL due to significantly stronger expression of SIgs (P less than .05), the higher reactivity with anti-CD9 and -CD22 antibodies (P less than .05), the lower reactivity with anti-CD5 and -CD23 antibodies (P less than .05), and the absence of CD25 determinants. Several clinical features of patients with BZSLL, including age group, advanced stage disease, and high frequency of bone marrow and peripheral blood involvement, were similar to those found in the other patients with ILL/MZL and SLL/CLL, but none of the BZSLL patients had an absolute lymphocyte count higher than 15.0 x 10(9)/L at presentation. Based on the architectural pattern, cytologic features, immunophenotypes, and hematologic findings, we conclude that BZSLL is an unusual variant of SLL that is primary in the lymph nodes and should be distinguished from ILL/MZL and CLL.

Sixteen patients presented with B cell leukaemia (white cell count 26-269 x 10(9)/l) which could not be classified as chronic lymphocytic (CLL), prolymphocytic leukaemia, or follicular lymphoma in leukaemic phase. Eleven patients (10 men, one woman) corresponded histologically to intermediate (INT) or mantle zone lymphoma, and five, with less well defined features, were designated small lymphocytic lymphoma with cleaved cells. The blood films showed a pleomorphic picture with lymphoid cells of predominantly medium size with nuclear irregularities and clefts. The membrane phenotype of the circulating cells showed strong immunoglobulin staining and reactivity with CD5 and FMC7 in all cases tested; CD10 was positive in six out of nine cases. The membrane phenotype of two of the five cases of small lymphocytic lymphoma was close to those of B-CLL and three resembled INT lymphoma. Bone marrow trephine biopsy specimens showed a diffuse pattern of infiltration in INT lymphoma. The median survival of these patients was less than two years, suggesting that a leukaemic presentation is associated with poor prognosis. By combining data from histology, membrane markers, and peripheral blood morphology, the leukaemic phase of typical INT lymphoma can be defined in most cases.

Sixteen cases of intermediate lymphocytic lymphoma (ILL), including eight cases with mantle zone architecture, were studied using cryostat sections, a biotin-avidin immunoperoxidase technique, and a large panel of monoclonal antibodies. The neoplastic cells invariably expressed IgM, most B lineage antigens (B1, TO15, Leu-12, 6A4, 41H, BA-1, and LN-2), and Ia. IgD was expressed in 12 cases. Leu-1 and Leu-8 were weakly expressed by the tumor cells in 12 and 11 cases, respectively. The neoplastic cells did not express common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CALLA) or the T10 antigen in any case. Because ILL is difficult to differentiate from small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) and diffuse small cleaved cell lymphoma (DSCCL) on the basis of light microscopic criteria, the immunologic findings of ILL were compared to 31 cases of B cell SLL and 11 cases of B cell DSCCL previously studied in the laboratory to determine if immunologic findings might aid in the distinction. No absolute, and five statistically significant, differences were found; IgD in combination with IgM was seen more commonly in cases of ILL and DSCCL than in SLL (P less than .01), IgG was found more often in SLL than in ILL and DSCCL (P less than .05), Leu-8 was more commonly expressed in ILL and SLL than in DSCCL (P less than .05), T9 expression was less frequent in ILL as compared with SLL (P less than .05) and more proliferating cells were seen in ILL and DSCCL than in SLL (P less than .01). The investigators conclude that these three classes of lymphoma are remarkable much more for their immunologic similarities than for their differences and that immunologic studies are of limited usefulness in differentiating the three neoplasms. Their results also support the concept that these lymphomas are closely related to each other. In particular, DSCCL immunologically appears to be more closely related to SLL and ILL than to follicular small cleaved cell lymphoma.

Diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBLs) represent a heterogeneous collection of aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphomas that can arise either de novo or as a result of transformation from chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, follicular lymphomas, or lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue. A small percentage of DLBLs express the CD5 antigen. The majority of these cases have evolved from a pre-existing low grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (Richter's syndrome). However, we identified and characterized nine CD5-positive DLBLs in which the patients did not have a previous history or concomitant evidence of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, or mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue-associated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, suggesting that they arose de novo. All nine cases expressed CD20 and monotypic immunoglobulin, all eight cases examined expressed CD19, CD22 and CD43, eight of the nine cases expressed HLA-DR, and two of eight cases expressed CD11c. None of the cases expressed CD3, CD10, CD11b, CD21, CD23 or CD30. CD5 expression by these cells was found to be identical to that of CD5-positive B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia by quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis of CD5 mRNA. These nine de novo CD5-positive DLBLs exhibited clonal immunoglobulin heavy and light chain gene rearrangements but lacked integration of the Epstein-Barr virus genome and structural alterations of the bcl-1, bcl-2, c-myc, H-ras, K-ras, and N-ras proto-oncogenes and the p53 tumor suppressor gene. However, bcl-6 proto-oncogene rearrangement, which is involved in chromosome band 3q27 aberrations, was found in four cases (44.4%). This is comparable with the frequency of bcl-6 gene rearrangement in CD5-negative DLBL. In contrast, bcl-6 gene rearrangement was absent in six cases of DLBL associated with Richter's syndrome. These findings suggest that de novo CD5-positive DLBLs are genotypically similar to CD5-negative DLBLs and may be pathogenetically distinct from the DLBLs associated with Richter's syndrome.

Flow immunophenotyping, DNA content analysis, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification for t(11;14) and t(14;18) were performed on 11 cases of typical mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), 5 cases of apparent MCL with proliferation centers (MCL-PC), and 5 cases of small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Immunophenotyping showed IgM (P < .001), Ig light (P < .001), and CD20 (P < .001) expression to be more intense in MCL than in SLL. In MCL-PC, the mean intensity of IgM, Ig light chain, and CD20 expression was intermediate to the intensities observed in MCL and SLL. Furthermore, in contrast to SLL, all MCL and 4 of 5 MCL-PC cases exhibited stronger CD20 than CD19 expression. CD10 expression was not observed in any case and CD5 expression was present in all SLL and MCL-PC cases and in 9 of 11 MCL cases. DNA content analysis showed an S-phase fraction of less than 3% in all cases studied and, except for 1 MCL case, all lymphomas were DNA diploid. The t(11;14) breakpoint junctions involving the bcl-1 major translocation cluster were amplified by PCR in 4 of 11 (36%) MCL cases and in none of the MCL-PC or SLL cases. The t(14;18) involving the bcl-2 major breakpoint region was not identified by PCR in any case. We conclude that the level of expression of surface antigens and the rapid detection of t(11;14) by PCR are potentially useful for distinguishing MCL and SLL in the clinical setting. Further investigations as to the biologic relationship between MCL, MCL-PC, and SLL, and the utility of t(11;14) PCR in these lymphomas are warranted.

To characterize CD5+ B-cell neoplasms in Japan, where chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is rare and of different subtypes in comparison with Western countries, we collected 58 cases of CD5+ B-cell lymphomas/leukemias and analyzed their clinicopathologic features. According to the French-American-British (FAB) and standard histologic classification, the cases corresponded to small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL, group I; n = 22, consisting of CLL, n = 10, CLL/PL, n = 3, and CLLmixed, n = 7); intermediate differentiated lymphoma/mantle cell lymphoma (IDL/MCL, group II, n = 18); and others with CD5-positive lymphomas (group III, n = 18). The CD5+ B-cell lymphomas showed morphologic and prognostic variability among the three groups. The clinical and immunophenotypic features were remarkably consistent in leukemic disease being seen in 73% of all cases, splenomegaly in 63%, and intense CD19, CD20, surface membrane immunogobulin M (SmIgM) or SmIgM and SmIgD, light-chain expression, and no CD10 expression. The median survival time of groups I, II, and III was 7.8, 3.3, and 0.8 years, respectively. These findings suggest that CD5 antigens may serve as valid markers for the prognosis and clinical features of B-cell lymphomas and that CD5+ B-cell lymphomas with an overall poor prognosis occurs at a relatively high frequency in Japan. This also suggests that a combination of immunophenotypic and morphologic features is of value for characterizing CD5+ B-cell neoplasms.

This is the first case of primary macroglobulinemia with t(11;18) (q21;q21) reported in the literature. A 77-year-old man was admitted to a hospital in December, 1994, with acute renal failure and pleural effusion. He was treated with prednisolone pulse therapy and his symptoms improved. He was referred to our hospital for further examination. Analysis of blood chemistry revealed macroglobulinemia (IgM-kappa). There were no other findings that would indicate a diagnosis of malignant lymphoma. A complete blood count revealed a hemoglobin level of 8.7 g/dl and a white blood cell count of 5,300/microliters with 11% abnormal lymphoid cells. Immunologic and karyotype analyses revealed that these abnormal cells were positive for IgM-kappa, CD19, and CD20, negative for CD5, and CD10, and had t(11;18) (q21;q21). The bone marrow had also been infiltrated by 8.6% abnormal lymphoid cells. Six other cases with t(11;18) (q21;q21) have been reported including 5 of small lymphocytic lymphoma and 1 of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue-type lymphoma. The tumor cells in these cases were the same as in our case. Therefore, our report is in agreement with the finding that t(11;18) (q21;q21) might be one of the characteristic chromosomal abnormalities in mature B-lymphoid neoplasms.

Diagnosis of small B-cell lymphomas is sometimes difficult without fresh tissue for flow cytometry (FC) or immunohistochemistry (IHC). Therefore, we examined the usefulness of a paraffin section IHC panel consisting of antibodies to CD5, CD10, CD20, CD23, CD43, and cyclin D1. We tested 55 formalin-fixed small B-cell lymphomas, including 16 small lymphocytic lymphomas (SLLs), 10 mantle cell lymphomas (MCLs), 25 follicle center lymphomas (FCLs), and 4 mantle zone lymphomas (MZLs). Seventeen cases had B5-fixed sections that were stained in the same manner. The findings were correlated with FC immunophenotyping when available. All of the SLLs and 90% of the MCLs expressed CD5 by IHC, with occasional weak expression in some MCLs. All of the FCLs and MZLs lacked CD5 expression. These results were comparable to those obtained by FC. CD43 expression was seen in 100% of the SLLs, 90% of the MCLs, and 75% of the MZLs. CD23 expression was seen in 94% of the SLL; of these, 100% also showed expression of CD23 by FC. Cyclin D1 was detected in all of the MCLs by IHC but also in 3 of the 16 SLLs. CD23 was absent in all of the MCLs. CD10 expression was present in 21 (95%) of 22 FCLs. All of the 17 cases fixed in B5 showed a decreased immunoreactivity for CD5 in the neoplastic cells. In contrast, CD10 immunoreactivity was judged better in B5-fixed sections. We concluded, therefore, that anti-CD5 and -CD10 were useful tools in the differential diagnosis of B-cell lymphomas of small lymphocytes and that a paraffin-section IHC panel consisting of antibodies to CD5, CD10, CD20, CD23, CD43, and cyclin D1 was a useful ancillary technique that compared favorably with FC.
