Histologically identifiable variants are well described. Most MCLs are the classic variant, although more aggressive variants including blastoid and pleomorphic exist. The pleomorphic variant is a morphologic subtype composed predominantly of large atypical lymphoid cells. This variant can arise de novo or occur in patients with previous history of MCL as result of disease progression and clonal evolution. Mantle cell lymphoma is characteristically Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) negative. Here, we present an extremely unusual case of pleomorphic MCL that arose in a 69-year-old man with a previous 10-year history of indolent chronic leukemia. This case was unusual and diagnostically challenging because the large and pleomorphic lymphoma cells were EBV positive and had Hodgkin-like morphologic features and only focal cyclin D1 expression. Fluorescence in situ hybridization studies confirmed the presence of the CCND1-IgH gene rearrangement. The disease was clinically aggressive, and the patient died 12 months after diagnosis. Epstein-Barr virus–associated MCL and large cell progressions of MCL are only rarely reported. The additional features we describe, including only focal expression of cyclin D1 and Hodgkin-like morphology, make this an even more unusual and therefore difficult to identify lymphoma. Importantly, this case raises the question as to whether MCL can have histopathologic progressions analogous to the well-established EBV-associated Hodgkin-like Richter transformations of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma.","PeriodicalId":43475,"journal":{"name":"AJSP-Reviews and Reports","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75088171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An average of 5% of patients with CLL/SLL will have disease that undergoes RT during their clinical course. While most (75%) of these transformed cases manifest as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, other variants occur, including a small minority (0.4%–0.7%) that progress to a classic Hodgkin lymphoma variant. Richter transformation portends a poor outcome in comparison to nontransformed CLL/SLL. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) can be offered, with a 5-year survival rate of 50% to 70%. In addition to disease relapse, transplantation carries significant risk of nonrelapse morbidity, including posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD). The distinction between disease progression or recurrence and PTLD can be challenging and has critical prognostic and therapeutic implications. In this report, we describe a patient whose initial CLL/SLL transformed to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, who then received allo-SCT. Subsequent development of classic Hodgkin lymphoma proved to be a diagnostic conundrum, for which PTLD and disease progression/recurrence were both reasonable considerations. This case illustrates the diagnostic dilemma and semantic confusion faced by both pathologists and clinicians when lymphoproliferative disorders emerge within the immunologically complex interface of CLL/SLL, RT, and allo-SCT. As molecular technologies are becoming more commonplace in routine diagnostics, subpopulation clonal analysis may be useful in such cases. It may also be worth reevaluating the classification and criteria for PTLD and different subtypes of RT, especially in light of implications for prognosis and optimal therapies.","PeriodicalId":43475,"journal":{"name":"AJSP-Reviews and Reports","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74600313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This leads to fusion of the BCR and ABL1 genes, encoding an active tyrosine kinase that causes unregulated proliferation of the myeloid lineage. The BCR/ABL1 fusion protein is found not only in CML, but also in a subset of de novo B-lymphoblastic leukemia (B-LL). However, the fusion protein in CML is characteristically the slightly longer p210 variant, whereas the p190 variant is more frequently found in B-LL. Without treatment, CML will progress to accelerated and/or blast phase (BP). Disease progression is often characterized by accumulation of additional chromosomal abnormalities. The development of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy that targets BCR/ABL1 has revolutionized treatment of CML and vastly improved outcomes, although the disease can still progress despite TKI therapy. Blast phase most commonly manifests as myeloid BP; however, up to 30% of BP presents as lymphoid BP (LBP), typically of the B-cell lineage. The B-lymphoblasts of LBP have a phenotype indistinguishable from that of de novo B-LL. However, LBP typically carries the p210 BCR/ABL transcript and may show distinct chromosomal anomalies, including loss of chromosome 9p. The prognosis for CML-BP is poor, although survival has improved with TKI therapy and stem cell transplant, and LBP has been associated with superior survival compared with myeloid BP.

While all 3 subtypes are typically indolent, a subset undergoes transformation to an aggressive B-cell lymphoma resulting in treatment challenges and a worse prognosis. We present a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren disease who developed MZL while on cyclophosphamide and steroids for treatment of her autoimmune disease. Her MZL was associated with a relatively indolent initial course. Unfortunately, her systemic lupus erythematosus continued to progress, and she ultimately required a renal transplant for end-stage renal disease due to lupus nephritis. At transplant, her MZL was thought to be in remission, but shortly thereafter, she developed an enlarging neck mass. A biopsy demonstrated background MZL with focal transformation to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Evidence is emerging that the underlying biology of a subset of MZL based on mutational profile, gene expression, and/or cytogenetic factors may affect the risk of transformation. Immune status has not been linked to progression, but chronic inflammation and immune dysregulation in the setting of chronic infection or autoimmune disease may underlie MZL development. In addition, iatrogenic immunosuppression for solid organ transplant or acquired immunodeficiency in the setting of human immunodeficiency virus may also result in increased risk or unusual presentations of MZL. This article features a case-based approach to explore factors related to MZL progression in a patient with a complex history of autoimmunity and immune suppression.","PeriodicalId":43475,"journal":{"name":"AJSP-Reviews and Reports","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77168671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
