A 13 year old boy presented with a huge mass on his right arm of 6 months duration. Histopathological examination revealed sheets of malignant small round blue cells with immunopositivity for LCA, CD43, CD45Ro, CD30, EMA, ALK-1 and CD99, and negativity for CD20, TdT, myogenin, myoD1, NSE, bcl-6, bcl-2 and CD10. Fluorescent In-Situ Hybridization (FISH) testing excluded the diagnosis of Ewing's sarcoma/PNET. Pathologists need to be aware of the diagnosis of a small cell variant of ALCL, as well as of the fact that CD99 expression commonly occurs in cases of ALK-positive ALCL, in order to distinguish this entity from Ewing's sarcoma/PNET.

A 41-year-old male presented to an outside institution complaining of a lump under the skin of his right abdomen. CT scan reported ill-defined densities with streaky inflammatory changes in the anterior abdominal wall. Excisional biopsy of the subcutaneous adipose tissues of the right anterior abdominal wall was consistent with subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma. Flow cytometry demonstrated CD3+ and CD8+ population. On immunohistochemistry, most lymphoid cells were positive for CD3, CD45RO, CD5, and CD8 and negative for CD10, CD43, CD4, CD20, and CD56. The MIB-1 proliferative index was 30%. Bone marrow biopsy revealed no evidence of lymphomatous involvement.

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is listed in the new World Health Organization classification as extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of MALT. Most cases occur predominantly in adults and are rare in children or adolescents. We report, with a review of earlier literature, a MALT lymphoma of the lower lip in a 7-year-old immunocompetent child. The patient had a sessile, indurated, and firm mass on the lower lip without regional lymphadenopathy. Microscopically, dense lymphoid cell infiltrates composed of small- to medium-sized centrocyte-like cells and plasmacytoid cells infiltrating around scattered reactive germinal centers were observed, with formation of typical lymphoepithelial lesions. Immunohistochemical staining demonstrated positivity of atypical lymphoid cells for CD20, CD43, CD79a, and Bcl-2 and negativity for CD3, CD5, CD10, CD23, Ki-1, Bcl-10, and ALK. Cytoplasmic kappa light chain restriction was demonstrated. We conclude that this case represents the youngest patient with a MALT lymphoma of the lip.

We report a 68-year-old Korean man presenting with asymptomatic erythematous polycyclic annular firm plaques on his back that spread to the right shoulder. Histopathologic examination showed dense, diffuse infiltrates involving the entire dermis, consisting of atypical lymphocytes with many centrocytes and a few centroblasts. Spindle-shaped cells with elongated, twisted nuclei containing dispersed chromatin were also seen. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that all of the cells were strongly positive for CD20, CD21, CD79a and CD45, while they were negative for CD3, CD5, CD10, CD23, CD35, CD43, CD45RO and CD68. The spindle cells were also negative for smooth-muscle actin, desmin, S-100 and CD34. They consistently expressed nuclear bcl-6, but did not express bcl-2, multiple myeloma-1 and p16. We diagnosed him with primary cutaneous spindle cell B-cell lymphoma (PCSBCL) and treated him with six cycles of cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine, prednisone and rituximab (R-CHOP) chemotherapy; his skin lesions disappeared completely. Immunohistochemical profiles suggest that PCSBCL is a variant of primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma.

We describe a case of human immunodeficiency virus-associated T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoblastic lymphoma in a 43-year-old Italian man with a history of human immunodeficiency virus infection lasting 9 years. Immunoperoxidase stains showed that neoplastic cells were positive for CD3, TdT, CD45, CD10, CD1a, CD2, CD7, CD5, and CD43 (focal). The proliferation rate was approximately 70%, assessed by Ki-67/MIB-1 staining. Flow cytometry of the marrow aspirate revealed an intermediate/cortical T-lymphoblastic phenotype: negative for surface CD3 and positive for cytoplasmic CD3, CD1a, TdT, CD2, CD7, CD5, and CD8, with partial coexpression of dimCD4. Analysis of T-cell receptor gamma polymerase chain reaction products showed clonality. T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoblastic lymphoma is a very rare occurrence in the clinical setting of human immunodeficiency virus infection. It is not listed in the World Health Organization classification of lymphomas associated with human immunodeficiency virus infection. Only 4 cases of human immunodeficiency virus-associated T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoblastic lymphoma are reported in the current medical literature.

The genetic alterations underlying extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue type are heterogeneous and show variation according to the tumor site. Here, we report a case of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma of the gallbladder with genetic characterization. This lymphoma, diagnosed in a 75-year-old woman who underwent cholecystectomy for suspected acute cholecystitis, presented as diffuse thickening of the gallbladder wall. The morphology was typical of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, and by immunophenotype, the tumor cells were CD20+ CD5- CD10- CD23- CD43- BCL6- BCL2+ IgM+ IgD- lambda+, with moderate nuclear expression of BCL10. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis on paraffin sections, using a fusion probe for API2/MALT1, demonstrated 2 fusion signals in most nuclei, bringing the first documentation of a t(11;18)(q21;q21) in this exceptional primary disease location.

Castleman's disease (CD) is an unusual lymphoid hyperplasia occurring in the mediastinal lymph nodes and, less frequently, in the neck lymph nodes. CD is classified clinically into a unicentric and a multicentric type, whereas three histomorphological variants are recognized: the hyaline vascular type, the intermediate type and the plasma cell type. We report the clinical and pathological features of a 54-year-old female suffering with multiple sclerosis and developing a lymph node hyaline-vascular type CD relapsing in the skin after 24 months. Histological features showed a nodular dermatitis with atrophic germinal centers and an 'onion skin' rimming of lymphocytes in the mantle zone with numerous mantle zone lymphocytes with clear cytoplasm, with a CD20+, CD79a+, IgM+, IgG-, IgA-, CD5-, CD10-, CD43-, CD45RO-, bcl-2+ and bcl-6- phenotype with polytypic nature supporting the diagnosis of lymphoid variant of hyaline-vascular CD. This case shows that skin CD recapitulates all the histological variants of lymph node CD. Considering the many similarities between the present case and the primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma, it is important to bear in mind this atypical lymphoproliferative disorder in order to avoid overdiagnosis and overtreatment.

Among the diffuse lymphomas of B-cell origin, we have encountered one variant displaying blastoid features that morphologically mimic lymphoblastic lymphoma, the blastoid variant of mantle cell lymphoma, and the so-called blastoid transformation of follicular lymphoma. To better characterize this entity, we studied eight cases morphologically, immunohistochemically, and by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for cytogenetic abnormalities commonly associated with follicular lymphoma and B-cell lymphomas exhibiting high-grade histological features. All eight cases were presented as de novo neoplasms, and displayed an entirely diffuse (five cases) or only minimal follicular (three cases) growth pattern. The neoplastic lymphoid cells were of medium size with round nuclei, fine chromatin, inconspicuous nucleoli, and high mitotic rate; they expressed CD10, BCL6, and BCL2-a phenotype consistent with follicle center cell origin. A proportion of cases expressed MUM1. Their lack of TdT and CYCLIN D1 distinguished them from lymphoblastic lymphoma and the blastoid mantle cell lymphoma, respectively. The neoplastic lymphoid cells consistently expressed CD43 (seven of eight cases) and occasionally other T-cell-associated antigens, including CD5, CD7, CD8, and CD57. Although all cases overexpressed BCL2, t(14;18) was not detected in any of the five cases examined by FISH; instead, extra copies of chromosome 18 were found in four of five cases. Finally, other cytogenetic abnormalities, including structural abnormalities of BCL6 (allelic loss/gain, rearrangement), monosomy 7, del(13)(q14), and MYC allelic loss, were frequently detected. The combination of a B-cell CD10+ BCL6+ BCL2+ phenotype in the presence of structural abnormalities of BCL6 is consistent with a follicular center cell derivation for our cases. The lack of t(14;18) seen in our cases, although rare in most cases of follicular lymphoma, has been nevertheless reported in cases of follicular lymphoma with a predominantly diffuse growth pattern. The molecular pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and prognostic significance of these lesions remain to be elucidated.

Patients with the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome are at high risk for development of lymphomas, which are predominantly extranodal and of the immunoblastic type. We present a case of a self-limited lymphoproliferation with features of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma arising in a patient with the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. The patient also had stigmata of von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis. The tumor was composed of CD138+, IgGkappa+, CD20-, PAX-5- Mott cells and CD5-, CD10-, CD19+, CD20+, CD43- small lymphoid B-cells that partially expressed CD23. The lymphadenopathy spontaneously resolved after a period of less than a year, and the patient had remained free of detectable lymphoproliferation for almost 4 years. He then developed Burkitt's lymphoma of the left parapharyngeal space. It is remarkable that both known lymphoproliferations with features of lymphoplasmatic lymphoma arising in patients with the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, this one and the previously described one, have spontaneously resolved. This observation is truly intriguing and requires further clinico-pathologic studies.

Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) represents a rare and heterogeneous group that lacks markers specific for the diagnosis. We evaluated morphologic and immunoarchitectural features of 51 NMZLs, and the following immunostains were performed: CD20, CD21, CD23, CD5, CD3, CD43, CD10, Ki-67, BCL1, BCL2, BCL6, HGAL, and LMO2. Four immunoarchitectural patterns were evident: diffuse (38 [75%]), well-formed nodular/follicular (5 [10%]), interfollicular (7 [14%]), and perifollicular (1 [2%]). Additional features included a monocytoid component (36 [71%]), admixed large cells (20 [39%]), plasma cells (24 [47%]), compartmentalizing stromal sclerosis (13 [25%]), and prominent blood vessel sclerosis (10 [20%]). CD21 highlighted disrupted follicular dendritic cell meshwork in 35 (71%) of 49 cases, and CD43 coexpression was present in 10 (24%) of 42 cases. A panel of germinal center-associated markers was helpful in eliminating cases of diffuse follicle center lymphoma. Our results highlight the histologic and immunoarchitectural spectrum of NMZL and the usefulness of immunohistochemical analysis for CD43, CD23, CD21, BCL6, HGAL, and LMO2 in the diagnosis of NMZL.
