MYC Alteration by Chromothripsis Event in Aggressive High-Grade B-Cell Lymphoma Negative by Conventional Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization Analysis: A Case Report
Double-hit and double-expressor phenotypes in lymphomas are characterized by activation of the expression of the MYC and BCL2 genes through diverse mechanisms including chromosomal translocations and amplifications. Herein, we report a high-grade B-cell lymphoma in a patient with evidence for a chromothripsis event (via chromosomal microarray methodology) at chromosome 8, resulting in a focal copy number gain of theMYC locus, not detected by conventional fluorescence in situ hybridization for MYC despite strong MYC expression by immunohistochemical analysis. Chromosome analysis from the biopsy was not successful because of an extensive tissue necrosis. Chromothripsis is suggested as another mechanism for the activation of MYC in non-Hodgkin lymphoma, resulting in aggressive disease course, and this case underscores the need for chromosomal microarray testing in select cases to identify aggressive biology.
期刊介绍:
Each issue of Pathology Case Reviews examines one vital theme in the field with peer-reviewed, clinically oriented case reports that focus on diagnosis, specimen handling and reports generation. Each theme-oriented issue covers both histopathologic and cytopathologic cases, offering a comprehensive perspective that includes editorials and review articles of the newest developments in the field, differential diagnosis hints, applications of new technologies, reviews of current issues and techniques and an emphasis on new approaches.
