Abstract
C-MYC rearrangement has been listed as a new subcategory of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) in the latest International Consensus Classification (ICC), but B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL) with C-MYC rearrangement is extremely rare and therefore is a novel finding worth reporting. In this study, we described a small number of pediatric cases of B-LBL with C-MYC rearrangement, which overlapped features of B-LBL and Burkitt lymphoma (BL), including highly aggressive clinical presentation, lymphoblasts with precursor B-cell phenotype and C-MYC rearrangement; the combination treatment of the mature B-NHL protocol and ALL-type protocol may be appropriate for this rare entity, and more studies are required to identify an adequate therapeutic strategy.
期刊介绍：
Annals of Hematology covers the whole spectrum of clinical and experimental hematology, hemostaseology, blood transfusion, and related aspects of medical oncology, including diagnosis and treatment of leukemias, lymphatic neoplasias and solid tumors, and transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells. Coverage includes general aspects of oncology, molecular biology and immunology as pertinent to problems of human blood disease. The journal is associated with the German Society for Hematology and Medical Oncology, and the Austrian Society for Hematology and Oncology.
