However, histological transformation to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has been sporadically reported, and its clinicopathological features remain poorly understood. We describe a rare case of DFL that transformed to non-germinal center DLBCL, including the specific biological characteristics based on immunohistochemical, cytogenetic, and molecular analyses. A 62-year-old woman was diagnosed with DFL and followed without treatment. Six years later, she presented with progressive anemia and an ulcerative lesion in the ileocecum. Biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of DLBCL with the non-GCB immunophenotype according to Hans' algorithm, which is an uncommon immunophenotype of transformed FL. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis revealed BCL6 translocation in both DFL and DLBCL samples. In addition, polymerase chain reaction and sequencing analyses of immunoglobulin heavy and light chain rearrangements clearly demonstrated that the DFL and DLBCL share a common origin. After surgical resection of the ileocecal lesion and six cycles of R-CHOP chemotherapy, the patient has remained in complete remission for 3 years. This case highlights the importance of long-term follow-up of DFL and provides insights into the pathophysiology underlying the transformation of DFL.","PeriodicalId":45936,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hematopathology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144049986","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}

PCNS-LBCL is characterized by mature germinal center-exit B cells, and most cases of this phenotype are classified as activated B-cell-like phenotype according to gene expression profiling, or as non-germinal center B-cell-like phenotype (non-GCB type) according to Hans's algorithm. Genetically, PCNS-LBCL often shows mutations in MYD88L265P and CD79BY196, and is similar to MCD or C5 in genetic subtypes. Therefore, we here investigated the clinicopathological and molecular characteristics of primary CNS B-cell lymphomas (PCNSBLs), focusing on the differences in the frequency of MYD88L265P and CD79BY196 mutations, as well as the prognosis between GCB and non-GCB types. Forty-two patients with PCNSBLs were included in this study, with 12 (28.6%) classified as GCB type and 30 (71.4%) as non-GCB type. There were no significant differences between the two types in gender, tumor location, or frequency of MYD88L265P and CD79BY196 mutations. Even after consideration of the confounding of age and the presence of R-MPV therapy, the GCB type PCNSBLs tended to exhibit better prognosis. Overall survival tended to be better in those with the GCB/MYD88L265P mutation (-) group, followed by the GCB/MYD88L265P mutation (+) group, and the non-GCB type. We speculate that Hans's algorithm and MYD88L265P mutation may have potential prognostic value for PCNSBLs.","PeriodicalId":45936,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hematopathology","volume":" ","pages":"28-39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12051415/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143068695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We describe an exceptionally rare case of KD involving the lingual tonsil of Waldeyer's ring in a 39-year-old Japanese man, marking only the second reported instance of lingual involvement and the first specifically affecting the tongue base. The patient presented with a well-circumscribed, 3.5-cm mass extending from the lingual tonsil to the epiglottis. Laboratory findings revealed significant peripheral eosinophilia (13.5%) and elevated serum IgE levels (2,750 IU/mL). Because of the challenging location for conventional biopsy, fine-needle aspiration cytology was performed on associated cervical lymph nodes. Cytological examination identified Warthin-Finkeldey-type multinucleated cells, eosinophilic infiltration, and vascular proliferation, leading to a presumptive KD diagnosis based on cytomorphology. The diagnosis was confirmed through surgical excision and histopathological analysis. This case is noteworthy for two reasons: it documents an extremely rare presentation of KD in the tongue base and underscores the diagnostic value of cytological examination in anatomically difficult locations where surgical biopsy may be unfeasible. The presence of Warthin-Finkeldey-type multinucleated cells in cytological specimens provided a key diagnostic clue, particularly when integrated with clinical and laboratory findings. At six months post-surgery, the patient showed no recurrence. This case highlights the importance of considering KD in the differential diagnosis of head and neck masses, even in atypical locations, and demonstrates the potential utility of cytological examination in diagnosing KD.","PeriodicalId":45936,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hematopathology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143617564","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}

The diagnosis of BPDCN is often challenging due to its rarity and morphologic and phenotypic overlap with other hematologic malignancies, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The emergence of tagraxofusp, a CD123-directed cytotoxin, and other novel therapies has underscored the importance of accurately diagnosing BPDCN. This review initially outlined the clinical and histopathological features of BPDCN, including patients with immunoblastoid morphology. Various proposed diagnostic criteria based on flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry findings were presented, highlighting critical points of caution in the diagnostic process. Strategies for detecting minimal residual disease or microinvasion in BPDCN, a significant clinical issue, were also discussed. Additionally, we reviewed the recurrent 8q24 (MYC) and MYB rearrangements observed in BPDCN, which can aid in diagnosis. Furthermore, we explored mature plasmacytoid dendritic cell proliferation (MPDCP) associated with myeloid neoplasm, which is characterized by a clonal proliferation of pDCs in cases with a defined myeloid neoplasm and may also serve as a potential differential diagnosis for BPDCN. Lastly, we discussed pDC-AML, characterized by pDC proliferation in AML cases, which can also be part of MPDCP and is often associated with frequent RUNX1 mutations. Overall, this review provides insights into BPDCN diagnosis and highlights the current challenges in its detection and differential diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":45936,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hematopathology","volume":"65 1","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12051425/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143755049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
