Marginal zone lymphoma, abbreviated MZL, is a common type of lymphoma composed of small cells.
General
- Arise in the context chronic infections, e.g. Sjögren disease (salivary gland), Hashimoto thyroiditis (thyroid gland), Helicobacter pylori gastritis (stomach).[1]
Classification
- Comes in three different flavours:
- Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma.
- Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL).
- Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL).
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:
- Cluster of lymphocytes - three cells or more - key feature.
- Single lymphocytes don't count.
- Clearing around the lymphocyte cluster.
- Cluster of lymphocytes - three cells or more - key feature.
- Not specific for MALT lymphoma, i.e. may be seen in other types of lymphoma.[4]
- Features:
DDx:
- Other small cell lymphomas.
- DLBCL - should be a distinctive region at low power.[citation needed]

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.
- Typically positive in mantle cell lymphoma.
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.
- Should not be confused with t(14;18) seen in follicular lymphoma between IGH-BCL2.[9]
- t(1;14)(p22;q32) / IGH‐BCL10.
The MALT1 associated translocations can be assessed with an ISH break apart probe for MALT1.
