EAHP 16- LYWS-217 BASEL

This case report presents an aggressive form of follicular lymphoma (FL) with a translocation (8;14), leading to a rapidly growing tumor. The patient experienced an abrupt onset of symptoms and had a markedly aggressive course. The pathology findings, genetic studies, and clinical history are detailed.

  1. EAHP 16- LYWS-217 BASEL Follicularlymphoma grade 3B with t(8;14)

  3. Clinical history A woman, 54 ys. Past history: ulcerouscolitis (dg. 2011), mesalazine, no immunosuppression Presentedwithanabruptonsetofsymptoms and a markedlyaggressivecourse April 2014 - enlargedcervical LN and rapidlygrowing bulky abdominaltumours (9 cm in thediam), massivegeneralizedlymphadenopathy pleuraleffusion,  massive BM infiltration, high LDH, IPI3, stage IV.B

  4. Therapy and outcome Aggressive: R-HyperCVAD, R-HIDAC + MTX, BEAM withautologous PBSCT, CHOP,  2 completeremissions a relapse in the oral cavity (gingiva) in her second CR - allogenic PBSCT Shediedofpneumonia in December 2015.

  5. Firstbiopsy – LN -distinctfolliculararchitecture, no DLBCL component

  6. Follicular architecture and starry-sky pattern

  7. Neoplastic „starry sky“follicle without any mantle, interfollicular small reactive lymphocytes

  8. Centroblasts, centrocytes,highmitotic and apoptoticactivity

  9. Immunohistochemistry LN - neoplastic cells • Positive: CD20, CD79a, PAX5, CD10, bcl6, bcl2, p53, c-myc; Ki67: approaching 100% • Negative:cyclin D1, TdT, MUM1, CD34, CD30; IgL: slightly more kappa; polyclonalheavychains • folliculardendriticmeshworksretainedonly in fewfollicles(CD23); a smalladmixtureof T-cells, mainlyaroundfollicles (CD3, CD5) –helping make thefolliculararchitecturevery distinct

  15. C-myc Lymph node C-myc p53

  16. Bone marrow (28 May 2014)denseinterstitial to diffuseinfiltration p53 bcl2

  17. C-myc CD20 Bone marrow diffuseinfiltration by large B-cells positive: CD20, CD79a, bcl2, bcl6, p53, c-myc; Ki67 over 95%; negative: TdT

  18. Gingiva – relapse (May 2015) c-myc p53

  19. Genetic studies • Cytogenetics: • lymph node (FFPE) - FISH - positive: t(8;14); negative: t(11;14); bcl6; • repeatedly not assessable (breakapart, fusionprobes): t(14;18) • similar: gingiva (FFPE) – relapse • Bone marrow (fresh; examined in VI-VII/2014): • G-banding and FISH:  tumourcells: t(14;18);t (8;14); del TP53, chrom. 7 trisomy • Molecularstudies: PCR • BM - fresh - bcl2/JHa : positive (mcr); IgH: clonal • LN: bcl2/Jha(mbr, mcr): negative; IgH: clonal • IgH and IgKproducts – comparison • samesize in allthreesamples - IgK – 285 bp • IgH – (FR1 – 334 bp, FR2 – 267 bp), FR3 – 133 b • EBER ISH, EBV (PCR) – all negative (LN, BM, gingiva)

  20. Proposed diagnosis: Lymphnode: follicularlymphoma grade 3B, with a folliculararchitecture- witht(8;14); othertranslocations not detectedpossiblybecauseof a poortechnicalqualityofthe FFPE sample Bone marrow: diffuselarge B-cell lymphomawitht (8;14), t(14;18) del TP 53. chrom.7 trisomy- transformationofFL Gingiva – relapse of DLBCL

  21. Interesting feature(s) of submitted case: • Clinical: an abrupt onset of symptoms – • a very aggressive presentation, rapidly growing large tumours (“growing like a Burkitt lymphoma…“) • Pathological:follicular lymphoma grade 3B without DLBCL – as found in the initial LN is relatively rare • t(8;14) in FL g. 3B is rare - found in 13-20%; found in a similar percentage of FL of all grades • (Horn 2011, Bosga – Bouwer; Au, Mohamed; Offit)

  22. C-mycbreaks in FL rare • 40% oflymphomaswithdualmyc/bcl2 have a historyof FL • 50% oflymphomaswith c-mycrearrangement are DHL – DLBCL, Burkitt, to a lesserextent FL • c-myc - involved in transformation maybeanadverseprognosticindicator.  Differentialdiagnosis: • FL, blastoid and FL 3B shoulddiffer in the cytology oftumourcells, but sharesomeimmunomorphological and geneticfeatures (e. g. starryskypattern, very highmitotic and proliferativerate, somegeneticchanges) • Burkittlymphomawith a folliculargrowthpattern

  23. Transformation – possible scenarios: • FL isusuallyknown to havebeenpresentforyearsbeforeittransforms to DLBCL. Thetransformationof FL  occurs in 3% ofcases per yearoverthefirst 15 ysofobservation, most commonly to DLBCL 2. Theremaybepatientswhohave LN with FL forsometime and go undiagnoseduntilthetransformation - whichmaydrawattention by clinicalworsening

  24. Remark: • Ourpatientwent to see her doctorsfrequently ( gastroenterologist; gymaecologist) yearsbeforethepresentationoflymphoma Thelymphomaprobablystarted to grow very rapidlywhichisunusual but wecannotgenerallyexcludethatsomelymphnodeswith a lymphoma in anindolentphasemayhaveescapedmedicalattention
