Haematolymphoid Tumours (WHO Classification, 5th ed.)

editContent Update To WHO 5th Edition Classification Is In Process; Content Below is Based on WHO 4th Edition Classification
This page was converted to the new template on 2023-12-07. The original page can be found at HAEM4:Systemic EBV-Positive T-cell Lymphoma of Childhood.

(General Instructions – The main focus of these pages is the clinically significant genetic alterations in each disease type. Use HUGO-approved gene names and symbols (italicized when appropriate), HGVS-based nomenclature for variants, as well as generic names of drugs and testing platforms or assays if applicable. Please complete tables whenever possible and do not delete them (add N/A if not applicable in the table and delete the examples); to add (or move) a row or column to a table, click within the table and select the > symbol that appears to be given options. Please do not delete or alter the section headings. The use of bullet points alongside short blocks of text rather than only large paragraphs is encouraged. Additional instructions below in italicized blue text should not be included in the final page content. Please also see Author_Instructions and FAQs as well as contact your Associate Editor or Technical Support)

WHO Classification of Disease

Structure Disease
Book Haematolymphoid Tumours (5th ed.)
Category T-cell and NK-cell lymphoid proliferations and lymphomas
Family Mature T-cell and NK-cell neoplasms
Type EBV-positive T-cell and NK-cell lymphoid proliferations and lymphomas of childhood
Subtype(s) Systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoma of childhood

Definition / Description of Disease

  • A life-threatening clonal disease resulting from primary Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infected T-cells or in the setting of systemic chronic active EBV infection (CAEBV)
  • T-lymphocytes infected with EBV infiltrate the liver, spleen, lungs, skin and marrow, resulting in multiorgan failure, sepsis and death
  • Rapidly progressive
  • Most common in children and young adults after a primary EBV infection; can occur in adult patients

Synonyms / Terminology

  • Fulminant EBV-positive T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder of childhood
  • Sporadic fatal infectious mononucleosis
  • Fulminant hemophagocytic syndrome in children in Taiwan
  • Fatal EBV-associated hemophagocytic syndrome
  • Severe Chronic Active EBV Infection (CAEBV; legacy term)

  • CAEBV infection (in some cases)

Sites of Involvement

Systemic disease with most commonly involved sites:

  • Liver
  • Spleen
  • Lymph nodes
  • Bone marrow
  • Skin

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

  • Morphology and immunophenotyping (IHC or flow cytometry)
  • Clonal proliferation of T cells (polyclonal cases have been reported[15])

Familial Forms

  • Racial predisposition suggests a genetic background; however, no specific genetic abnormalities have been detected

Additional Information

Differential Diagnosis[16][17]

  • Clinical and pathologic features of EBV-HLH and systemic EBV positive T-cell lymphoma of childhood overlap. These entities have been suggested to represent a biologic continuum
  • EBV-HLH is defined by a constellation of clinical symptoms and laboratory changes that might be triggered by EBV-associated lymphomas including aggressive NK-cell leukemia (ANKL) and systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoma of childhood
  • EBV-HLH associated with genetic abnormalities (primary HLH) can be excluded by genetic analysis and family history
  • Systemic CAEBV infection is difficult to differentiate from systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoma based only on morphologic grounds. The clinical information is necessary to achieve the correct diagnosis
  • ANKL is very similar to systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoma but the tumor cells express NK cell markers (CD56+) and do not show monoclonal TCR gene rearrangements

Additional Information[13][18][19]

  • Poor outcomes overall due to cytokine storm in HLH
  • Survival rates lower with disease onset after 8 years and with liver dysfunction at diagnosis
  • Death due to rapid disease progression for which there is no effective treatment
  • No known treatment; some case reports of response to etoposide and dexamethasone-based regimen followed by allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
