Marginal zone lymphoma
Diagnosis in short

Marginal zone lymphoma of the kidney. H&E stain.
LM small lymphoid cells +/-plasmacytoid features +/-lymphoepithelial lesion
LM DDx other small cell lymphomas, DLBCL
IHC CD20 +ve, BCL2 +ve, CD21 +ve, CD43 +ve/-ve
Site gastrointestinal tract, lymph nodes
Prevalence moderate
Endoscopy +/-nodularity
Other CD11c +ve (flow cytometry or laser scanning cytometry)

Marginal zone lymphoma, abbreviated MZL, is a common type of lymphoma composed of small cells.

General

Classification

  • Comes in three different flavours:
    1. Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma.
      • If in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue known as a MALT lymphoma, AKA MALToma. There is also a counterpart in the lung that arises from bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue. These are known as BALTomas.
    2. Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL).
    3. Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL).

Whilst there are some immunohistochemical differences between the 3 types, separating them out depends on clinical features and radiological findings, e.g. splenic marginal zone lymphoma with spread to lymph nodes may be indistinguishable from primary nodal marginal zone lymphoma.

Microscopic

Features:

  • Small (lymphoid) cells that may be plasma cell-like (plasmacytoid):[2]
    • +/-Clockface nucleus.
    • +/-Eccentric nucleus.
  • +/-"Lymphoepithelial lesion" - gastric crypts invaded by a monomorphous population of lymphocytes.[3]
    • Features:
      1. Cluster of lymphocytes - three cells or more - key feature.
        • Single lymphocytes don't count.
      2. Clearing around the lymphocyte cluster.
    • Not specific for MALT lymphoma, i.e. may be seen in other types of lymphoma.[4]

Extrazonal marginal zone lymphojma of mucosa-associates lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) in stomach of 64 Year old man, identified in sleeve gastrectomy performed for weight loss. A. Predominantly submucosal blue masses without definite follicles. B. Small round to irregular lymphoid cells surround the most inferior pits. C. Non-neoplastic T cells are seen in abundance, sometime within pit epithelium. D. Neoplastic B cells mass and surround pits, but do not extensively invade the epithelium; lymphoepithelial lesions were not seen. E. Cancer cells expressed BCL2. Cancer cells were negative for CD5, CD10, and cyclin D1.

Lymphoepithelial lesion

  • Lymphoepithelial lesion - very high mag. (WC)

  • Lymphoepithelial lesion - intermed. mag. (WC)

IHC

Features:[5]

  • CD20 +ve.
  • BCL2 +ve.
  • CD21 +ve.
  • CD11c +ve (flow cytometry or laser scanning cytometry - only; not available for paraffin).
  • CD43 +ve/-ve.

Others:

  • CD5 -ve.
  • CD10 -ve.
  • CD23 -ve.

Molecular

There are several associated with MALT lymphoma:[6]

  • t(11;18)(q21;q21) / API2‐MALT1[7] - most common translocation in MALT lymphoma.[8]
  • t(14;18)(q32;q21) / IGH‐MALT1.
  • t(1;14)(p22;q32) / IGH‐BCL10.

The MALT1 associated translocations can be assessed with an ISH break apart probe for MALT1.
