Aggressive Lymphoplasmacytic Neoplasm With an Unusual In-frame Deletion of MYD88 Associated With TRAF3 and TP53 Mutations and Complex Karyotype.
International Journal of Surgical Pathology 2023 April 25
Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma often needs to be differentiated from other B-cell lymphomas with plasmacytic differentiation, especially marginal zone cell lymphoma. Molecular detection of MYD88 p.L265P hotspot mutation supports the diagnosis of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma since it is seen in about 90% of such lymphoma, which is much higher than other B-cell lymphomas. MYD88 p.L265P is a gain-of-function mutation that enhances the activity of the NF-κB signaling pathway and therefore drives lymphomagenesis. Other mutations in MYD88 are rarely reported. This study aims to report an unusual MYD88 in-frame deletion in an aggressive lymphoplasmacytic neoplasm. This is an IgM-positive, CD5- and CD10-negative mature B-cell lymphoma with prominent plasmacytic differentiation and aggressive features. The clinical and pathologic findings were most consistent with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma. Next-generation sequencing identified an unusual MYD88 in-frame deletion in the absence of the hotpot p.L265P mutation. Other concurrent pathogenic mutations also include truncating mutations of TRAF3 , which is a negative regulator of the NF-κB signaling pathway, and a missense mutation of TP53 . Karyotype analysis showed complex karyotypes, including chromosome 6q deletion. By searching literature and online cancer databases, we identified only 8 other mature B-cell lymphomas with MYD88 in-frame deletions, but none of them was diagnosed with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma. Recognizing such in-frame deletions is necessary to help understand the mutational spectrum of MYD88 in B-cell lymphomas. It remains to be further investigated whether such MYD88 in-frame deletions are also overrepresented in lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma among other B-cell lymphomas.
