Immunophenotypic analysis of myeloperoxidase-negative leukemia cutis and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm.
Myeloid leukemia cutis (LC) and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) are morphologically indistinguishable malignancies that frequently manifest in the skin. Separating myeloperoxidase-negative LC from BPDCN may be particularly challenging. We identified a panel of immunohistochemical stains to distinguish myeloid LC (23 cases) from BPDCN (12 cases): myeloperoxidase, which stain...
متن کاملBlastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm; A Report of Three Cases
Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare hematodermic myeloid malignancy that is known to be derived from plasmacytoid dendritic cells which are characterized by expression of CD4, CD56, and more specific markers such as CD123. Here, the authors present three cases of BPDCN diagnosed in the past two years and address different available diagnostic modalities such as morpho...
متن کاملBlastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm
Introduction Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare, highly aggressive hematopoietic malignancy. It manifests as cutaneous and bone marrow involvement and leukemic spread. It represents 0.7% of primary cutaneous lymphomas. Recently, it was established as a distinct entity. We present a rare case of BPDCN with good response to chemotherapy and review the clinicopathologic...
متن کاملBlastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm.
A 81-year-old man had multiple skin lesions (brown-red plaques on the face, abdomen, and back) and asthenia. There was no hepatosplenomegaly or adenopathy. Despite normal blood count values, the peripheral smear contained blasts (7%). Bone marrow examination showed 50% of blasts and mild erythroid dysplasia. The abnormal cells were medium-sized with blastic round (panels A-B) or convoluted (pan...
متن کاملBlastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm*
Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm is a rare and aggressive hematodermic neoplasia with frequent cutaneous involvement and leukemic dissemination. We report the case of a 76-year-old man with a 2 month history of violaceous nodules and a tumor with stony consistency, located on the head, and mandibular, cervical and supraclavicular lymphadenopathies. Multiple thoracic and abdominal ad...
