چکیده

Concurrent seminoma and malignant lymphoma of the testis is rare. We present a case of concurrent seminoma and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) in a 54-year-old man who complained of painless left testicular enlargement. Radical left orchiectomy was performed. Macroscopically, the tumor (4.0 × 3.0 cm) was creamy, soft, and homogeneous, and microscopic evaluation revealed an alveolar structure of large cells that formed sheets, as well as colonization by other abnormal cells in a 1.0 × 1.0 cm area. The portion of the tumor comprising large abnormal cells was diagnosed as a seminoma, which was positive for c-kit by immunohistochemistry; the other portion was diagnosed as CD3/CD8, TIA, and granzyme B-positive PTCL-NOS. These two portions were clearly differentiated from one another. The patient received CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone) therapy and achieved complete response for 50 months. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of synchronous advanced seminoma and PTCL.

CD30-positive peripheral T-cell lymphomas share molecular and phenotypic features.

Peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified is a heterogeneous group of aggressive neoplasms with indistinct borders. By gene expression profiling we previously reported unsupervised clusters of peripheral T-cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified correlating with CD30 expression. In this work we extended the analysis of peripheral T-cell lymphoma molecular profiles to prototypical CD30...

Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma of the Uvula: A Rare Entity

Abstract Introduction: Extra-nodal exposition of T-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is extremely rare, and is frequently observed in patients with immune system dysfunction. Peripheral T-cell lymphoma does not express CD56 is rare. Malignant lymphoma of the uvula is exceedingly unusual. The current study reported a case of peripheral T-cell lymphoma of the uvula in an immunecompetent patient. ...

Concomitant Secondary Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma with Therapy-related Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia in a Patient with History of High-grade Follicular Lymphoma

A secondary myeloid or lymphoid neoplasm is not infrequently associated with a primary tumor, solid or hematopoietic, post cytotoxic treatment or radiation. Concurrent secondary neoplasms derived from distinct myeloid and lymphoid cell origins are rare. It is not only a diagnostic challenge, but makes for difficult treatment management. We report a very rare occurrence in 63-year-old male with ...
