Ophthalmoplegia with diffuse large B cell lymphoma: vital differential diagnosis.
Ophthalmoplegia is an unusual finding in diffuse large B cell lymphoma. This report describes the case of a 72-year old male patient who presented with ophthalmoplegia but no gross neurological manifestations and an isolated mass in the left upper thigh. His ophthalmoplegia improved from his first cycle of systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy, his thigh mass effusion spontaneously resolved, an...
متن کاملPrimary cutaneous large B cell lymphoma, leg type: A case report and review of the literature

We report a case of an 80-year-old manwith multiple cutaneous lesions. Here, we review the availableliterature and summarize clinical features and management ofthis type of cutaneous B-cell lymp...
متن کاملCell receptor studies on seven cases of diffuse histiocytic malignant lymphoma (reticulum cell sarcoma).
Expression of B and T lymphocyte receptors has been studied in seven cases of reticulum cell sarcoma. In one case, surface receptors and tests of phagocytic function demonstrated the histiocytic origin of the neoplastic cells. In four cases, tumour cells expressed both B and T lymphocyte markers (two cases) or showed a normal pattern of expression of B and T lymphocyte markers. In the other two...
متن کاملHistiocytic sarcoma
A 59-year-old white woman, SC, after being treated for pneumonia, presented with an increase in the size of lymph nodes. The immunohistochemical examination diagnosed histiocytic sarcoma. Relapse occurred 12 months after starting chemotherapy. The patient evolved with febrile neutropenia, septic shock and death.
متن کاملTransformation of B cell lymphoma to histiocytic sarcoma: somatic mutations of PAX-5 gene with loss of expression cannot explain transdifferentiation
Transdifferentiation of B cell lymphoma of germinal center cell origin to histiocytic sarcoma has recently been described but is a rare occurrence. The cause for loss of B cell differentiation in these lymphomas is unknown. We investigated whether somatic hypermutation of the PAX-5 gene, a transcription factor that is important for maintaining B cell identity and is frequently mutated in B cell...
