The clinical significance and prognostic value of CD10 in de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is largely unknown. We retrospectively studied 19 men and 9 women based on the following criteria: (1) DLBCL with no evidence of concomitant or antecedent follicular lymphoma; (2) available flow cytometric immunophenotyping data, including CD10 status; (3) older than 15 years; (4) specific exclusion of high-grade, Burkitt-like lymphoma; and (5) exclusion of primary cutaneous DLBCL. When available, clinical data at diagnosis, including components of the international prognostic index, were reviewed. Eleven cases were CD10+, and 17 were CD10-. There was no significant difference between the CD10+ and CD10- groups in age, sex, stage, performance status, extranodal involvement, or serum lactate dehydrogenase levels at diagnosis. However, in the 26 cases for which follow-up data were available, the CD10+ group displayed a shorter overall survival than the CD10- group (8 vs 30 months). Although the clinical findings at diagnosis are similar in CD10+ and CD10- DLBCL, CD10 expression is associated with shortened overall survival. Therefore, our data suggest CD10 expression may have prognostic importance in adults with de novo DLBCL.

The Revised European-American Lymphoma classification gives Burkitt-like lymphoma (BLL) provisional status, leaving unresolved the differential diagnosis with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study compared the biologic features of adult BLL and DLBCL. The phenotypic distinction between BLL and DLBCL was determined by immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissue from 13 patients with BLL and 55 patients with DLBCL by using an extensive antibody panel including Ki-67, CD10, CD11a/lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1alpha (LFA-1alpha), CD18/LFA-1beta, CD58/LFA-3, and CD54/intercellular adhesion molecule, CD8 for tumor-infiltrating cytotoxic T cells (T-TILs), CD44 homing receptor, and p53 and Bcl-2 oncogenic proteins. Compared with DLBCL, BLL had a higher proliferative rate (mean Ki-67, 88% versus 53%), greater expression of CD10 and p53 antigens, and decreased expression of Bcl-2. BLL cases had a consistent absence of one or more cell adhesion molecules (92% versus 27%), low T-TIL numbers, and absence of CD44 homing receptor (92% versus 14%). The t(8;14) translocation was identified in 80% of BLL cases, but no patients with BLL had the t(14;18) translocation. In a 10-year analysis, median survival of patients with BLL was 1.2 years, and that of patients with DLBCL was 2.5 years. Although the proportion of patients cured was similar in the 2 groups, BLL patients had an increased risk of early death. We conclude that BLL can be recognized by its combined morphologic and phenotypic features and that it represents a high-grade lymphoma much closer to BL than DLBCL. Retention of the BLL category or inclusion of BLL as a variant of BL is biologically and clinically more appropriate than absorbing the category of BLL into DLBCL. (Blood. 2001;97:3713-3720)

Nodal presentation of Burkitt-like lymphoma is common, particularly in gastrointestinal tract. However, only few cases with massive ascites and signs of subileus due to lymphoma proliferation are described. We report a 31-year-old male patient who presented with fever, night sweats, vomiting and abdominal fullness. Physical examination suggested much ascites. Abdominal X-rays showed hydroaeric levels. Diagnosis or Burkitt-like lymphoma was established on the basis of cytological and immunohistochemical examination of ascites (immune phenotype of malignant cells was EMA-, NSE-, LCA+, CD10 -/+, CD20 +, IgM +, Ki-67 + 100%). After treatment with BMF protocol complete remission was achieved and retained for 2.5 years. Authors stressed that immunohistochemical examination of ascites has been proved as simple and efficient method for establishing precise diagnosis. In this way, laparotomy was avoided, which otherwise would be necessary due to exclusive abdominal localization of the disease.

Adult, de novo B-cell lymphomas meeting the WHO morphologic criteria for atypical Burkitt/Burkitt-like lymphoma cause diagnostic difficulty for pathologists because the genetic and clinical characteristics of this group of lymphomas have not been clearly defined. Thirty-one such lymphomas, designated as Burkitt-like lymphomas (BLL), were selected based on morphologic features and evaluated for immunophenotype, MYC and BCL2 status, and clinical features. Nine childhood Burkitt lymphomas (BL) and 87 adult, de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBL) were similarly evaluated for comparison. The BL group demonstrated uniform characteristics: all had Burkitt lymphoma morphology, an identical immunophenotype (positive for CD20, CD10, bcl-6, CD43, and p53; negative for CD138, CD23, bcl-2), high MIB-1 positivity, IGH/MYC translocation, no IGH/BCL2 translocation, and all patients were alive at the last follow-up. The BLL and DLBL groups were heterogeneous. Burkitt-like morphology alone correlated with decreased survival. IGH/MYC or IGL/MYC fusion was identified in 11 of 27 (41%) BLL and 4 of 76 (5%) DLBL and was associated with decreased survival in both groups. MIB-1 positivity did not correlate with morphology, MYC abnormalities, or survival. We propose that adult B-cell lymphomas with BLL morphology are a phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous group of aggressive lymphomas, biologically distinct from childhood BL. Until biologically accurate subgroups within this morphologically defined group are identified, it is appears that both recognition of BLL morphology and direct evaluation for the presence of MYC fusion to immunoglobulin genes are important for identification of adult patients with poorer prognosis than those with DLBL.

The aim of the present study was to estimate optimum chemotherapeutic regimens for high-grade mature B-cell lymphoma cases with Burkitt-like morphology (Burkitt's lymphoma [BL]/Burkitt-like lymphoma [BLL]) patients. We analyzed 72 BL/BLL, including 36 with the c-myc translocation (molecular BL [mBL]), 20 without it (mBL-like), and 16 in whom we were uncertain regarding the existence of the c-myc translocation, and compared them with 182 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cases. On clinical and immunophenotypic analysis, the typical BL immunophenotype (CD10 positive, bcl-2 negative, and Ki-67 index >or=95%) was noted in 23 (66%) and 11 (55%) of the 35 mBL and 20 mBL-like patients, respectively. The presence of the c-myc translocation and typical immunophenotype in BL did not affect the overall survival of BL/BLL. There were no significant differences between the overall survival of DLBCL (45%) and BL/BLL (50%, P = 0.85). However, the overall survival of BL/BLL patients who received cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone-related therapy (22%) was significantly lower than that of DLBCL patients (P = 0.01). In contrast, the overall survival of BL/BLL patients who received aggressive short-term chemotherapy (75%) was better than that of the patients who received cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone therapy (P < 0.01). The finding was confirmed by multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 4.4; confidence interval 2.0-9.7; P = 0.0003). We concluded that aggressive short-term chemotherapy improves survival in BL/BLL, regardless of its genetic and immunophenotypic features.

Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a well characterized entity. For atypical findings a term Burkitt-like lymphoma (B-LL) was applied in the past, but the interpretation of the morphological appearances was subjective and poorly reproducible. We used a combined approach (morphology using classical histological staining; immunohistochemistry-IHC; fluorescence in situ hybridization-FISH on interphase nuclei; cytogenetics) to perform a retrospective study on 39 patients diagnosed as BL and B-LL at our department in the years 1982 to 2002. By FISH we demonstrated t(8;14)(q24;q32) in 31 patients; in further two we found a break at 8q24, suggestive of a variant translocation. In three patients with the cytogenetic investigation available we confirmed the findings of FISH--two lymphomas had the t(8;14)(q24;q32), one had t(2;8)(p12;q24). IHC showed CD20, CD10, BCL-6, p53 expression, and Ki-67 antigen in > 95% of the tumor cell population in a majority of the patients. There was a group of 4 patients in whom the t(8;14)(q24;q32) or a break at 8q24 were not found (FISH). These cases were reclassified within the WHO defined grey zone subgroup of B-cell lymphoma unclassifiable with features intermediate between diffuse large cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and Burkitt lymphoma--I-DLBCL/BL. Two further cases were reclassified as DLBCL based on a combined IHC and FISH findings. A lymphoma of one of these patients had breaks at 3q27 (BCL6) and at 14q32 (IGH) suggestive of t(3;14)(q27;q32). The overall survival estimate of 33 patients with the diagnosis of BL was 54%. Most of deaths occurred within 6 months after the tumor diagnosis. The unfavorable clinical outcome appears to be associated with a strong expression of the p53 protein in the tumor cell population. Individually utilized methods in the diagnosis of BL may lead to false diagnostic conclusions. A combined approach helps to establish a more reliable diagnosis of BL and to separate grey zone lymphomas I-DLBCL/BL and DLBCL with morphological mimics of BL to start adequate treatment. I-DLBCL/BL is a non-homogenous group of lymphomas necessitating further analysis in a prospective study.

We previously described a subset of MYC translocation-negative aggressive B-cell lymphomas resembling Burkitt lymphoma, characterized by proximal gains and distal losses in chromosome 11. In the 2016 WHO classification, these MYC-negative lymphomas were recognized as a new provisional entity, 'Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration'. Here we present an immunophenotype analysis of Burkitt-like lymphomas with 11q aberration. Cells were acquired by fine needle aspiration biopsy from 10 young adult patients, 80% of whom presented recurrence-free 5-year survival. Twenty-three MYC-positive Burkitt lymphomas, including three carrying both MYC rearrangement and 11q aberration, served as controls. By immunohistochemistry, all Burkitt-like lymphomas with 11q aberration were CD20+/CD10+/BCL6+/BCL2-/MUM1-/MYC+/EBV-, usually LMO2+/CD44-/CD43- and sometimes CD56+, and showed high proliferation rate. By flow cytometry, Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration immunophenotypically resembled MYC-positive Burkitt lymphoma, except for significantly (adjusted P<0.001) more frequent CD38^higher expression in Burkitt lymphoma (91% MYC-positive Burkitt lymphoma vs 10% Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration), more frequently diminished CD45 expression in Burkitt lymphoma (74% vs 10%), an exclusive CD16/CD56 and highly restricted CD8 expression in Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration (60% vs 0% and 40% vs 4%, respectively). We showed high diagnostic accuracy and effectiveness of flow cytometry in Burkitt lymphoma. CD16/CD56 expression without CD38^higher and the lack of CD16/CD56 with CD38^higher expression proves to be a reliable, fast, and cost-effective method for diagnosing 11q aberration and MYC rearrangements in CD10(+) aggressive lymphomas, respectively. In addition, we confirmed a pattern of an inverted duplication with telomeric loss of 11q, as a recurrent 11q abnormality, but one case presented alternative changes, possibly resulting in an equivalent molecular effect. Our findings reveal similarities along with subtle but essential differences in the immunophenotype of Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration and MYC-positive Burkitt lymphoma, important for the differential diagnosis, but also for understanding the pathogenesis of Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration.
