Cancer Category/Type

Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype

Definition / Description of Disease

  • Paediatric nodal marginal zone lymphoma (pNMZL) is a rare and distinct entity of NMZL seen in the pediatrics and young adult population[1]
  • pNMZL typically presents with an indolent course and localized disease[1], contrary from classic NMZL seen in adults[2]
  • Typically presents as asymptomatic, localized lymphadenopathy (Stage I)[3][4][5]
  • Laboratory testing: normal serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels[3][4][5]
  • Prognosis is typically excellent[4][5][6]
    • Five year event free survival: 94±6%[4]
    • Five year overall survival: 100%[4]
  • Complete remission follows surgical resection in most patients with limited/localized disease[4][7]
  • Chemotherapy and radiation therapy have also been used for management of limited stage disease[4][7]

Synonyms / Terminology

  • Monocytoid B-cell lymphoma
  • Parafollicular B-cell lymphoma (obsolete)

Epidemiology / Prevalence

Clinical Features

Sites of Involvement

Morphologic Features

  • Effacement of lymph node architecture due to expansion of marginal zone and intrafollicular proliferation
    • Expanded marginal zone may be delineated by IgD staining[6][7]
  • Follicular hyperplasia with features of progressive transformation of germinal centers (PTGC)[3][6][7][9]
  • Polymorphic infiltrate composed of small- to medium-sized cells with round nuclei and moderate cytoplasm[3][7]
  • Starry-sky appearance of residual hyperplastic germinal centers[9]

Immunophenotype

  • Similar to adult-type NMZL, pNMZL is almost universally positive for the mature B cell marker CD20 (90-100%) with most cases also expressing the pan-T cell marker CD43 (70-100%)[3][6][7][9][14]
  • A subset of pNMZL express BCL2 (40-50%) and IgD (20-30%)[3][6][7]
  • pNMZL cells are negative for the germinal center markers CD10, BCL6, CD23, and the T cell markers CD3, CD5[3][6][7][10]
  • CD279/PD-1 staining present in reactive germinal centers of pNMZL, compared to positive staining at the periphery of germinal centers in nodal pediatric-type follicular lymphoma[9]
Finding Marker
Positive (universal) CD19, CD20, sIg (bright, monoclonal), CD43
Positive (subset) BCL2, CD279/PD-1, IgD
Negative (universal) CD10, BCL6, CD23, CD5, CD3, LEF1

Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)

  • No chromosomal rearrangements or gene fusions associated with pNMZL[8]
  • Clonal rearrangements of immunoglobulin (Ig) region detected in most cases[3][10]

Characteristic Chromosomal Aberrations / Patterns

  • No characteristic chromosomal aberrations or patterns reported

Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH

  • Trisomy 3 and 18 are infrequently described chromosomal aberrations reported in pNMZL[10]
    • These chromosome gains have also been described in adult-type NMZL[2][15][16]
Chromosome Number Gain/Loss/Amp/LOH Region Prevalence[3] Reference
3 Gain Whole chromosome 0-20% [10]
18 Gain Whole chromosome 0-5% [10]
13 Gain Whole chromosome 0-5% [14]

Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)

  • Genes reported to be altered in adult-type NMZL, including MLL2 (KMT2D), PTPRD, NOTCH2, KLF2, and BRAF,[17][18] have not been described in pNMZL[8]
  • While no recurrent somatic variations have been identified in pNMZL, a somatic variant in AMOTL1 (NM_130847, p.Ala891Thr) was reported in a single individual with pNMZL[8]
Gene Mutation Oncogene/Tumor Suppressor/Other Presumed Mechanism (LOF/GOF/Other; Driver/Passenger) Prevalence Reference
AMOTL1 Missense Oncogene/Tumor Suppressor* Uncertain 1 patient of 4 total (25%) [8]

*The role in cancer is context dependent

Other Mutations

  • Additional studies are needed to assess the spectrum of somatic variation in pNMZL. A single report evaluated the genetic landscape of pNMZL by whole exome sequencing (n=4) identified missense changes in the following genes: AMOTL1, SCAF1, SELPLG, FAM5B, KLHDC4, RAX, PEG3, CHPF, ACTRT3, NRCAM, CHMP1A, CISH, TTC17, NLE1[8]

Epigenomics (Methylation)

  • None

Genes and Main Pathways Involved

  • AMOTL1 encodes angiomotin like-1 which associates with tight junctions and regulates the Hippo signaling pathway[21][22]

Diagnostic Testing Methods

  • Histopathology and immunophenotyping
  • Molecular testing (i.e. clonality assessment)

Clinical Significance (Diagnosis, Prognosis and Therapeutic Implications)

  • No genomic findings currently assist in diagnosis, prognostication, or therapeutic decisions

Familial Forms

  • Not described

Other Information

  • None
