B cell lymphoma - Abstract
Lymphoma is generally a nodal disease and arises from lymphoid tissues or organs. Extranodal lymphoma accounts for almost a third of malignant lymphomas. Squamous cell carcinoma accounts for 90% of laryngeal carcinoma, while extranodal Non Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) attributes only less than 1% of laryngeal neoplasms. Less than 100 of such cases been reported in literature since 1952. As to our best knowledge, no such case was ever reported in our country. We report a case of a 58-year-old gentleman who presented the typical history of laryngeal malignancy however the pathology turned out to be as NHLof Diffuse Large B-cell subtype.

Introduction: Lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) is a malignant neoplasm that originates from precursors of B or T lymphocytes and constitutes approximately 2% of all nonHodgkin lymphomas. They are infrequent in the oral cavity, even more so if it is an extra-nodal primary presentation. In this location, neither the clinical features nor the radiological appearance is pathognomonic and can represent significant diagnostic problems. Case Report: We present the case of a seven-year-old female patient with a slowly enlarging painless right mandibular mass of two weeks of evolution. Radiographic studies showed an infiltrative hypodense area involving the right mandibular body, compromised teeth in formation, and vestibular and lingual cortical. Histological examination revealed a malignant neoplasm with a proliferation of round, small, blue morphology cells. In addition, immunohistochemical markers for TdT and PAX5 were positive. The diagnosis was B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma and complementary studies confirmed only mandibular involvement without infiltration to other organs. Conclusions: The presentation of this case seeks to describe a rare neoplasm in the oral cavity, including clinical and radiographic presentation, histological characteristics, and immunological profile. The importance of an early and accurate diagnosis of this entity is emphasized due to the impact on patient survival. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study is to evaluate the basic epidemiological and clinical characteristics of lymphoma in childhood at the Department of Hematooncology, Pediatric Clinic, Clinical Center University of Sarajevo (CCUS), in ten year period. Patients and Methods: the study included 58 patients, of both gender, aged 0-15 years, diagnosed with lymphoma at the Department of Hematooncology, Pediatric Clinic of CCUS, in the period from January 1st 2004 to December 31st 2013. The retrospective study of patients with lymphoma in childhood was conducted. The results were presented using tables and charts, with number of cases and percentages. Statistical analysis of significant differences was performed using Fisher and Chi-square test. The values of p<0.05 or on the level reliability of 95% were considered statistically significant. Results: our study included 58 patients, 37 (63.80%) boys and 21 (36.20%) girls. Most of the patients were in the age group of 8-15 years, namely 38 (65.50%) patients. The leading symptom of lymphoma in childhood was lymphadenopathy, which was presented in 45 (77.58%) patients, followed by subfebrile temperature in 19 (32.75%), paleness in 16 (27.59%), hepatosplenomegaly in 13 (22.41%), and weight loss in 12 (20.69%) patients. The following elevated values were noted: LDH in 16 patients with HL and 14 with NHL, and Cu in 15 patients with HL and 10 with NHL. Majority of the patients with HL were diagnosed in stage II of disease, 12 (37.50%) patients, and 11 (34.40%) in stage IV. Majority of patients with NHL were diagnosed in stage II, 13 (50%), and 8 (30.80%) in stage IV. Conclusion: clinical diagnostic methods and modern therapy at the Pediatric Clinic of CCUS contribute to good prognosis for patients suffering from lymphoma in childhood. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: lymphomas are the primary neoplasias of the lymphatic system, which are usually manifested by painless enlargement of the lymph nodes. In children, the third most common malignancy are lymphomas, after leukemias and brain tumors. They represent 10-13% of newfound malignancies in children. There has been progress in the last 20 years as a diagnostic as well as therapeutic. Despite the progress of genetics, molecular biology and immunology, and their significant results, causes of these diseases have not yet been identified. Aim: the aim of this study is to evaluate the basic epidemiological and clinical characteristics of childhood lymphoma at the Hematooncology Department of Pediatric Clinic of the Sarajevo University Clinical Center (CCUS) in a ten year period. Patients and methods: the study included 58 patients, of both gender, aged 0 through 15, with diagnosis of lymphoma at the Hematooncology Department of the Pediatric Clinic of CCUS, during the period from January 1st 2004 to December 31st 2013. The retrospective study of patients with lymphoma in childhood was conducted. The results were presented using tables and charts, with number of cases and percentages. Statistical analysis of significant differences was performed using Fisher and Chi - square test. The values of p<0.05 or on the level reliability of 95% were considered statistically significant. Results: our study included 58 patients, 37 (63.80%) boys and 21 (36.20%) girls. It showed a higher percentage prevalence of boys compared to girls. Most patients were in the age group of 8-15 years, 38 (65.50%) patients. The leading symptom of lymphoma in childhood was lymphadenopathy, which was presented in 45 (77.58%) patients, followed by subfebrile temperature in 19 (32.75%), paleness in 16 (27.59%), hepatosplenomegaly in 13 (22.41%), and weight loss in 12 (20.69%) patients. The following elevated values were noted: LDH in 16 patients with HL and 14 with NHL, and Cu in 15 patients with HL and 10 with NHL. Most patients with HL were diagnosed in stage II of disease, 12 (37.50%) patients, and 11 (34.40%) in stage IV. Most patients with NHL were diagnosed in stage II, 13 (50%), and 8 (30.80%) in the IV stage. After leukemias (157 patients - 39.20%), lymphomas were the second malignancies in children, represented with 14.50% of all malignancies diagnosed at the Pediatric Clinic. Each year, an average 5.8 of new cases has ocurred and majority of them (10 new cases) in 2013. Ten-year survival of patients with HL was 87.50% and 80.77% with NHL. Conclusion: lymphomas are the second malignancies in children at the Pediatric Clinic of CCUS. Most patients are in the age group of 8-15 years, with higher percentage prevalence of boys compared to girls. Clinical diagnostic methods and modern therapy at the Pediatric Clinic contribute to the good prognosis for patients suffering from lymphoma in childhood. The survival rates of patients are similar to those in the international centres. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nasal type NK/T-cell lymphoma is a rare type of predominantly extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Early and correct diagnosis with prompt treatment of NK/T-cell lymphoma is important in view of its potentially aggressive behavior and poor response to treatment with additional sites of tumor developing sometimes weeks or months after initial diagnosis. Unfortunately diagnosis of NK/T-cell lymphomas often proves difficult. The diagnosis is essentially based on the clinical presentation of extranodal ulcerative lesions in the upper aero-digestive tract and histopathologic analysis of biopsies using immunohistochemistry. Here we present two cases with nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma that illustrate that definitive diagnosis is often delayed due to the atypical initial presentation. We will discuss the pitfalls in diagnosing this rare type of neoplasm and review the treatment options. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hematologic malignancies, including multiple myeloma (MM], will account for more than 1OO,OOO new cases of cancer and over 57,000 deaths in the United States in 2003. Treatment of MM is a serious challenge, because despite a variety of available therapies, median survival is short. A new therapeutic area focuses on inhibiting the activity of the proteasome, a 26S protease complex involved in cell cycle regulation, cell adhesion, inflammation, and protein turnover. The novel proteasome inhibitor, 5ortezomi5 (Velcade
® ), was recently approved for use in patients with refractory and relapsed MM and to date is the only proteasome inhibitor to have entered clinical trials. Borte- zomib has demonstrated activity with manageable toxicity in a variety of hematologic malignancies in addition to MM, including leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This article reviews clinical information on bortezomib in hematologic malignancies both as monotherapy and in combination with dexamethasone. Preliminary reports of bortezomib in combination with Doxil (pegylated liposomal doxorubicin), melphalan, and thalidomide arc discussed, and current trials arc described. Available data suggest that bortezomib will be useful in the treatment of a variety of hematologic malignancies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Paranasal sinus lymphoma is an uncommon malignancy and is often difficult to diagnose. Early diagnosis is essential for effective treatment. The tumour generally has poor prognosis. Ophthalmological symptoms and signs occur early in the disease process due to the close proximity of the orbit to the paranasal sinuses. Common presenting features include eye pain, proptosis, visual loss and diplopia. We report a case of frontal sinus lymphoma that presented as a superior-nasal orbital mass in an 84 year old man. CT scan demonstrated a mass occupying the frontal sinuses, with destruction of the anterior bony wall of the frontal sinus and extending to the right orbit. Histology revealed diffuse large B cell non Hodgkin's lymphoma. The tumor was treated with radiotherapy and showed regression; however the patient died 9 months later. Sinus tumours are encountered by ophthalmologists and should be considered in patients presenting with an orbital mass. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
