Optimizing therapy for nodal marginal zone lymphoma.
Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) is a rare form of indolent small B-cell lymphoma which has only been clearly identified in the last 2 decades and which to date remains incurable. Progress in therapeutic management has been slow, largely due to the very small number of patients treated and the heterogeneity of treatments administered; thus, standard-of-care treatment is currently nonspecific...
متن کاملComposite Follicular Lymphoma and CD5-Positive Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma.
Composite CD10-positive low-grade B-cell and CD5-positive low-grade B-cell lymphoma is extremely rare. We report a case of a composite follicular lymphoma (FL) and CD5-positive nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) in a resected inguinal lymph node of a 72-year-old Japanese male. Histologically, multiple follicles had reactive-germinal centers with tingible body macrophages, a thin mantle zone an...
متن کاملA Novel del(20q) in Aggressive Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma
This is a case report of a previously undescribed 20q chromosomal deletion (del(20q)) in marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). A 54-year-old Caucasian male presented with an enlarging neck mass and multiple violaceous skin nodules over his chest. Biopsy of the neck mass and cervical lymph nodes revealed MZL. Cytogenetic evaluation of both lymph node and bone marrow tissue revealed del(20q). This was an...
متن کاملNodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas may arise from different subsets of marginal zone B lymphocytes.
Nodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZL) is a rare and not extensively studied entity that accounts for approximately 2% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Complementarity-determining regions 2 and 3 (CDR2, CDR3) of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable region (V(H)) genes were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), cloned, and sequenced in 8 patients with nodal MZL. All showed a potential...
متن کاملNodal marginal zone lymphoma: what do we really know?
Typically, when one authors a commentary piece, a good template to follow is to start with some background material, review the major findings of the paper in question, and then focus on areas of controversy and unanswered questions. After reviewing the comprehensive article by Traverse-Glehen et al, we admittedly struggled to follow this template. Why is that? For starters, their review is so ...
