Secondary central nervous system involvement in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma treated with rituximab combined CHOP therapy - a supplementary analysis of JCOG0601.

[PMID: 38280061 PMCID: PMC11090957 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-024-05620-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/29/2024]
Abstract
Secondary central nervous system involvement (sCNSi) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is fatal. However, its features in patients with sCNSi who are categorized as lower risk by international prognostic index (IPI) or CNS-IPI are not yet fully understood. In the present analysis, we evaluated DLBCL patients who developed sCNSi at their first progression and who participated in JCOG0601, most of whom were lower risk by IPI. Of 409 patients, 21 (5.1%) developed sCNSi during a median follow-up of 4.9 years. Five-year cumulative incidence of sCNSi were 5.1%; and 4.0%, 5.3%, and 11.5% at low, intermediate, and high risk of CNS-IPI, respectively. The most common locations of extranodal lesions at the time of registration in patients with sCNSi were the stomach (n = 4), paranasal cavity (n = 3), and bone marrow (n = 2). In univariable analysis, paranasal cavity lesion was a high-risk factor for sCNSi (subdistribution hazard ratio, 4.34 [95% confidence interval 1.28-14.73]). Median overall survival after sCNSi was 1.3 years, with a 2-year overall survival rate of 39.3%. The incidence of sCNSi in DLBCL patients at lower risk of CNS-IPI was low, as previously reported, but paranasal cavity lesion might indicate high risk for organ involvement. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: JCOG0601 was registered in the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000000929, date of registration; December 04, 2007) and the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCTs031180139, date of registration; February 20, 2019).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal neoplasms, whether benign and malignant, pose a significant challenge to clinicians and represent a model area for multidisciplinary collaboration in order to optimize patient care. The International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors (ICSNT) aims to summarize the best available evidence and presents 48 thematic and histopathology-based topics spanning the field. METHODS In accordance with prior International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology documents, ICSNT assigned each topic as an Evidence-Based Review with Recommendations, Evidence-Based Review, and Literature Review based on the level of evidence. An international group of multidisciplinary author teams were assembled for the topic reviews using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses format, and completed sections underwent a thorough and iterative consensus-building process. The final document underwent rigorous synthesis and review prior to publication. RESULTS The ICSNT document consists of four major sections: general principles, benign neoplasms and lesions, malignant neoplasms, and quality of life and surveillance. It covers 48 conceptual and/or histopathology-based topics relevant to sinonasal neoplasms and masses. Topics with a high level of evidence provided specific recommendations, while other areas summarized the current state of evidence. A final section highlights research opportunities and future directions, contributing to advancing knowledge and community intervention. CONCLUSION As an embodiment of the multidisciplinary and collaborative model of care in sinonasal neoplasms and masses, ICSNT was designed as a comprehensive, international, and multidisciplinary collaborative endeavor. Its primary objective is to summarize the existing evidence in the field of sinonasal neoplasms and masses.

[PMID: 38233702 DOI: 10.1007/s12185-023-03700-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
The efficacy of high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) for central nervous system (CNS) relapse prophylaxis in patients with high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is controversial. We compared the prophylactic effects of HD-MTX and intrathecal methotrexate (IT-MTX) on CNS relapse in high-risk DLBCL, in a multicenter retrospective study. A total of 132 patients with DLBCL at high risk of CNS relapse who received frontline chemotherapy and IT-MTX from 2003 to 2013 (n = 34) or HD-MTX from 2014 to 2020 (n = 98) were included. After a median follow-up of 52 months (range: 9-174), 11 patients had isolated CNS relapse: six (6.1%) in the HD-MTX group and five (14.7%) in the IT-MTX group. The median time until CNS relapse was 38 months (range: 11-122), and the cumulative incidence of CNS relapse at 3 years was 3.9% in the HD-MTX group and 6.1% in the IT-MTX group (P = 0.93). Similar results were obtained after adjusting for background factors using propensity score-matched analysis (4.5% HD-MTX vs. 7.6% IT-MTX, P = 0.84). The CNS relapse rate in HD-MTX-treated patients was equivalent to that in IT-MTX patients, demonstrating that HD-MTX was not superior to IT-MTX in preventing CNS relapse.

Improved outcomes of localized diffuse large B-cell lymphoma at the Waldeyer ring in comparison to the sinonasal area in the rituximab era. Cancer Med 2024; 13:e6851. [PMID: 38148602 PMCID: PMC10807621 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the head-and-neck area primarily involves the Waldeyer ring (WR) and sinonasal area (SN). However, the differential clinical outcomes between patients with WR-DLBCL and those with SN-DLBCL in the rituximab era remain unclear. METHODS To avoid confounding factors contributed by advanced DLBCL with WR and SN involvement, we assessed the clinical outcomes of patients with stage I/II WR-DLBCL and SN-DLBCL and compared them with those having corresponding stages of DLBCL in the lymph nodes but without other extranodal involvement (LN-DLBCL) in the same period. We compared the patients' clinical characteristics, treatment modalities, event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival (OS) among the three subgroups. RESULTS We analyzed 67, 15, and 106 patients with WR-DLBCL, SN-DLBCL, and LN-DLBCL, respectively, between January 2000 and December 2019. All patients received front-line rituximab-based regimens, and > 80% received rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone-based regimens. More patients with SN-DLBCL had revised International Prognostic Index (R-IPI) score 3 (27%) when compared with those with WR-DLBCL (7%) and those with LN-DLBCL (10%, p = 0.181). Patients with WR-DLBCL, LN-DLBCL, and SN-DLBCL had 5-year EFS and OS rates of 80.7%, 59.5%, and 41.9% (p = 0.021) and 83.7%, 70.8%, and 55.8% (p = 0.032), respectively. Compared to patients with LN-DLBCL, those with WR-DLBCL also had a significantly favorable 5-year EFS rate (p = 0.021) and 5-year OS rate (p = 0.023). Three of the 15 patients with SN-DLBCL experienced lymphoma recurrence in the brain after front-line treatment. In multivariate analyses, R-IPI scores of 1-2 and 3 served as significantly poor prognostic factors for patients with poor EFS and OS. CONCLUSIONS Compared to patients with LN-DLBCL, patients with WR-DLBCL receiving front-line rituximab-based treatments had favorable clinical outcomes; however, patients with SN-DLBCL had worse clinical outcomes. Further studies on molecular prognostic factors and treatment strategies for SN-DLBCL are warranted.

Abstract
Radiation-induced cerebral necrosis, also known as radiation encephalopathy, is a debilitating condition that significantly impacts the quality of life for affected patients. Secondary central nervous system lymphoma (SCNSL) typically arises from highly aggressive mature B-cell lymphoma, but rarely from extranodal natural killer T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL). Treatment will be guided by differentiation between lymphoma progression from brain necrosis, and is particularly important for critically ill patients in an acute setting. However, differential diagnosis remains challenging because they share similar clinical manifestations and have no specific imaging features. We present the case of a 52-year-old man with ENKTL who suffered an emergency brain herniation secondary to massive radiation necrosis. The diagnosis established by brain biopsy ultimately led to appropriate treatment. The importance of the diagnostic biopsy is highlighted in this case for distinguishing between radiation necrosis and SCNSL.

Predictive impact of soluble interleukin‐2 receptor and number of extranodal sites for identification of patients at very high risk of CNS relapse in diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma. EJHAEM 2022; 3:385-393.

Abstract
There remains an unmet clinical need to identify which patients with diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) would benefit from central nervous system (CNS) prophylaxis, due to the low positive predictive value (PPV; 10%–15%) of the currently available predictive models. To stratify patients at high risk of developing CNS relapse, we retrospectively analyzed 182 patients with DLBCL initially treated with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R‐CHOP), or a R‐CHOP‐like regimen. Among them, 17 patients relapsed with CNS involvement, and the 2‐year rate of CNS relapse was 7.9%. Upon carrying out multivariate analysis, ≥3 extranodal sites and elevated soluble interleukin‐2 receptor (sIL‐2R) levels at diagnosis were identified as independent risk factors for CNS relapse. The 2‐year and 3.5‐year rates of CNS relapse were 57.1% and 78.6%, respectively, in patients with both elevated sIL‐2R and ≥3 extranodal sites. Furthermore, combined use of these risk factors of both elevated sIL‐2R and ≥3 extranodal sites resulted in a high PPV (71.4%), negative predictive value (93.1%), and overall accuracy (92.3%) for undergoing CNS relapse. In conclusion, we propose a simple and valuable tool to predict patients with DLBCL at very high risk of CNS relapse.

Abstract
An 86-year-old woman in a wheelchair was accompanied by her husband and son as she visited our outpatient clinic due to disturbed consciousness and fever. Twenty-seven years earlier, she had been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and had been treated with methotrexate (MTX) and low-dose prednisolone (PSL). She stopped taking MTX four years previously when she was diagnosed with diffuse large B cell lymphoma of the paranasal sinus. Her lymphoma went into remission after six cycles of systemic immunochemotherapy. MRI after hospitalization revealed a lesion in the splenium of the corpus callosum that was hyperintense on diffusion-weighted imaging and which had low apparent diffusion coefficient values. An analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid revealed no atypical cells. The MRI findings were atypical, but her consciousness disturbance improved, leading to the diagnosis of mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion, which would be associated with a transient consciousness disturbance with a good course. However, her consciousness worsened over the next 3 weeks. One month later, a contrast-enhanced MRI showed an enlarged lesion in the callosum as well as new lesions, and the diagnosis of secondary CNS lymphoma was made. Brain biopsy is often not feasible. Less invasive and highly accurate diagnostic methods are needed, such as the identification of a spinal fluid tumor marker.

Abstract
Despite central nervous system (CNS) relapse occurring in >10% of high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients, the role of CNS-directed prophylaxis is controversial in the absence of randomized controlled trials. In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of prophylactic high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) on CNS relapse and survival outcomes in 258 newly diagnosed R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone)-treated high-risk DLBCL patients, based on the initial treatment intent (ITT) of the physician on the use of prophylactic HD-MTX. Patients were classified into an ITT HD-MTX group (n = 128) and a non-ITT HD-MTX group (n = 130). The CNS relapse rate was not significantly different between these groups, with 2-year CNS relapse rates of 12.4% and 13.9%, respectively (P = 0.96). Three-year progression-free survival and overall survival rates in the ITT HD-MTX and non-ITT HD-MTX groups were 62.4% vs 64.5% (P = 0.94) and 71.7% vs 71.4% (P = 0.7), respectively. Also, propensity score-matched analyses showed no significant differences in the time-to-CNS-relapse, progression-free survival, or overall survival. The ITT HD-MTX group showed a higher incidence of grade ≥ 3 oral mucositis and elevated alanine aminotransferase. Prophylactic HD-MTX does not improve CNS relapse rate or survival outcomes in high-risk DLBCL patients, and it is accompanied by increased toxicities.

Abstract
Primary sinonasal lymphomas are a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with an overall incidence of about 1% of all head and neck cancers. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of NHL and it most commonly occurs in elderly men. The diagnosis of such a lymphoma is difficult because of its varied presentation, which usually occurs late after a significant mass effect has taken place. Symptoms vary significantly, from simply nasal obstruction or epistaxis to varied cranial neuropathies or the confusion seen with central nervous system (CNS) spread. Patients may present with a large orbital mass and proptosis. Therefore, emphasis should be placed on earlier detection by using appropriate imaging modalities to reveal such masses. A biopsy is necessary to confirm the diagnosis. The prognosis is scored by the International Prognostic Index. Staging scans with whole-body computed tomography (CT) with contrast and positron emission tomography-fluorodeoxyglucose (PET-FDG) are required to determine other areas of involvement. Treatment is with R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) with the case-dependent use of intrathecal chemoprophylaxis (methotrexate) to prevent CNS spread. Here, we present a case series of two patients who were found to have a primary sinonasal lymphoma of the DLBCL type. In both cases, the presenting symptoms were vague. A high index of suspicion is required to diagnose NHL early on, which portends the best chance of a successful outcome. This article seeks to emphasize the role of including primary sinonasal lymphoma as a differential in the presentation of unrelenting cranial neuropathies or facial mass.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs), a rare group of gene defects with different manifestations, are at great risk of malignancy. The incidence of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the sinusoidal tract is quite rare with nasal congestion, stuffiness, and pain in maxillary sinus manifestation. Human serine-threonine kinase 4 (STK4) deficiency affects the immune system with recurrent bacterial and viral infections, mucocutaneous candidiasis, cutaneous warts, skin abscesses, T- and B-cell lymphopenia, and neutropenia. PATIENT CONCERN In this study we describe the infrequent incidence and successful treatment of sinusoidal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in a STK4 deficient patient with clinical manifestation of severe intractable headaches, unilateral swelling of her face, nasal congestion, stuffiness, and pain in maxillary. DIAGNOSIS Clinical data including headaches, unilateral swelling of face, nasal congestion, stuffiness and pain in maxillary sinus with confirmed histopathology and magnetic resonance imaging finding confirmed sinusoidal diffuse large B cell lymphoma in a STK4 deficient patient. INTERVENTION Six cycles of R-CHOP (rituximab with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone) were administered and after each cycle, G-CSF support was used. Chemotherapeutic drugs were administered with standard dose and no dose reduction was done during the treatment. IVIG treatment continued during the courses of chemotherapy. OUTCOME The index patient achieved complete response at the end of chemotherapy courses and was in remission for about 8 months afterward, prior to the date of the present report. CONCLUSION PID patient are often at increased risk of malignancies. Sinusoidal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is quite rare and prognosis is variable. Early attention to patient's manifestation, suitable treatment, and monitoring manifestations caused by PID are critical.

We performed a population-based study to determine cell-of-origin, clinical presentation and impact of rituximab (R) and central nervous system (CNS) directed chemotherapy on survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with SNT-DLBCL were identified from pathology databases. Clinical information was collected and outcomes between different treatment modalities evaluated. RESULTS Thirty-two percent of the patients had germinal centre B-cell phenotype. Forty-six patients were treated with curative intent using CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) or CHOP-like chemotherapy, 21 (46%) before and 25 (54%) in the R-era. Additionally, 24 (52%) received CNS-directed chemotherapy. Addition of R to chemotherapy reduced the risk of progression (RR = 0.368, 95% CI 0.138-0.976, P = 0.045) and death (RR = 0.245, 95% CI 0.068-0.883, P = 0.032), and translated into better survival (5-year PFS, 67% vs 38%, P = 0.037; 5-year OS, 81% vs 48%, P = 0.020). CNS-directed chemotherapy reduced the risk of progression (RR = 0.404, 95% CI 0.159-1.029, P = 0.057) and death (RR = 0.298, 95% CI 0.093-0.950, P = 0.041), and translated into favorable survival (5-year PFS, 67% vs 32%, P = 0.050; 5-year OS 82% vs 43%, P = 0.030). CONCLUSION Patients with SNT-DLBCL benefit from rituximab and CNS-directed chemotherapy.

Abstract
Central nervous sytem recurrence of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is an uncommon but devastating event, making identification of patients at high risk for relapse within the central nervous system essential for clinicians. Modern risk stratification includes both clinical and biological features. A validated clinical risk model employing the five traditional International Prognostic Index risk factors plus renal or adrenal involvement can identify a high-risk patient population with a central nervous system recurrence risk of greater than 10%. Lymphoma involvement of certain discrete extranodal sites such as the testis also confers increased risk, even in stage I disease. Adverse biological risk factors for central nervous system relapse include presence of translocations of MYC, BCL2 and/or BCL6, in so-called double- or triple-hit lymphoma. Immunohistochemically detectable co-expression of MYC and BCL2 in the absence of translocations also portends an increased risk of relapse within the central nervous system, particularly in the setting of the activated B-cell-like subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The role, method, and timing of prophylactic therapy remain controversial based on the available data. We review both intrathecal and systemic strategies for prophylaxis in high-risk patients. Our preference is for systemic methotrexate in concert with standard chemoimmunotherapy in the majority of cases. Several novel agents have also demonstrated clinical activity in primary and secondary central nervous system lymphoma and warrant future investigation in the prophylactic setting.

Abstract
Paranasal sinus lymphoma (PNL) is a rare presentation of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with a natural history different from other types of lymphoma. The maxillary sinus is the most common paranasal sinus involved in NHL. Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) is a rare complication of PNL. In this case report, we present a case of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBL) that developed in the left maxillary sinus and relapsed as a left frontal brain mass after four years of disease remission.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) arises from extranodal organs in about 30% of cases. Its prognosis and risk of recurrence in the central nervous system (CNS) vary according to the primary site of origin. Recent studies begin to clarify these differences using molecular classification. Testicular, breast, and uterine DLBCL (as well as possibly primary cutaneous DLBCL, leg-type) share a high prevalence of the non-germinal center B cell (non-GCB) phenotype and the MYD88/CD79B-mutated (MCD) genotype. These biologic features, which resemble primary CNS lymphoma, may underlie their stage-independent propensity for CNS involvement. Management of these lymphomas should involve CNS prophylaxis, preferably using systemic high-dose methotrexate to prevent intraparenchymal recurrence. Involvement of the kidneys, adrenal glands, ovary, bone marrow, lung, or pleura usually indicates disseminated disease, conferring worse prognosis. Involvement of these sites is often associated with high CNS-International Prognostic Index (IPI), concurrent MYC and BCL2 or BCL6 rearrangements, or intravascular lymphoma-risk factors warranting CNS prophylaxis. In contrast, craniofacial, thyroid, localized bone, or gastric lymphomas have a variable prevalence of the non-GCB phenotype and lack MYD88 mutations. Their outcomes with standard immunochemotherapy are excellent, and the risk of CNS recurrence is low. We recommend individualized consideration of CNS prophylaxis based on the CNS-IPI score and anatomical proximity in cases of epidural, orbital, or skull involvement. Rituximab-containing immunochemotherapy is a standard approach for all extranodal DLBCLs. Surgery is no longer required for any primary site, but routine consolidative radiation therapy is recommended for testicular lymphoma. Radiation therapy also appears to be associated with better progression-free survival in primary bone DLBCL. Future studies should better distinguish primary from secondary sites of extranodal involvement, and investigate the association of newly identified genotypes with the risk of CNS or systemic recurrence.

Abstract
Despite improvement in survival in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with the introduction of rituximab, central nervous system (CNS) relapse continues to represent a clinical challenge. A number of studies have evaluated clinical risk factors in an attempt to identify high-risk patients to direct CNS staging investigations and consider prophylaxis strategies. The CNS International Prognostic Index is a robust and reproducible risk model that can identity patients at high risk of CNS relapse, but its specificity remains limited. Studies are emerging of biomarkers that predict CNS relapse that can be integrated with clinical risk models to better identify high-risk patients for CNS-directed prophylaxis strategies. Because CNS parenchymal disease is the predominant compartment, prophylaxis should include deeply penetrant drugs such as high-dose methotrexate. However, this has been associated with toxicity and has limited use in older patients. Novel therapies are being tested in primary CNS lymphoma with encouraging results and may represent rational strategies to be further explored in the prophylaxis setting.

Abstract
Background and Objective Central nervous system (CNS) relapse of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is relatively uncommon and nearly fatal. Two years CNS relapse risk is 0.8% in low, 3.9% in intermediate and 12% in high risk patients. Our aim was to study, the baseline characteristics and outcome in term of median survival of DLBCL patients with CNS relapse. Methods This is a retrospective analysis. All patients of DLBCL with CNS relapse from 2006 to 2014 were included. Data were collected from computerized Hospital Information System and analyzed for characteristics and median survival. Results Out of twenty one patients included in the study, 14(66.3%) males and 7(33.7%) were females. On initial diagnosis of DLBCL, median age was 37.4 years (27-47). Ann Arbor stage of I-IV was in 3 (14.3%), 2(9.5%), 4(19%) and 12(57.1%) patients, respectively. Extra-nodal involvement was noted in 16(76.2%), high LDH in 18(85.7%), bone marrow involvement in 8(38.1%) and bulky disease in 5(23.8%) patients. International Prognostic Index (IPI) score was 1 in 4(19%), 2 in 9(42.9%), 3 in 8(38.1%) patients. Extra-nodal sites were gut in 2(9.1%) while 1(4.5%) patient of each of following organs involvement was seen: cervix, gluteal muscle, iliac bone, liver, ovaries, pancreas, parotid gland and testes. Chemotherapy CHOP was given to 16(76.2%) and RCHOP in 5(23.8%) patients. Prophylactic intrathecal methotrexate was given to 10(47.6%) patients. Complete response was in 10 (47.6%), partial response was in 3 (14.3%) and disease progression was in 8 (38.1%) patients. CNS relapse occurred in 17 (81%) patients within six months after completion of therapy. CNS relapse along with systemic disease was in 14(66.6%) patients. Isolated CNS relapse was noted in 7(33.3%) patients. Second line chemotherapy regimens were HDMTX 5(23.8%), HDMTX/TRIO IT 3(14.2%), HDMTX/HDAC 2(9.5%), HCVAD 3(14.2%), ICE 4(19.4%), DHAP 1(4.7%), ICE/HDMTX 1(4.7%), none 2(9.5%). Overall median survival of CNS relapsed patients was 54 days. Conclusion Patients with DLBCL who had advanced stage, high LDH and extra-nodal involvement at initial presentation are at high risk for CNS relapse. About half of the patients had CNS relapse despite primary CNS prophylaxis. Once relapsed in CNS, these patients have very poor prognosis.

Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) relapse of aggressive B-cell lymphoma is a rare but serious complication with poor survival. Different approaches have been used to define risks factors for CNS relapse and establish prophylactic measures. Although patients with low or intermediate risk of CNS relapse should not undergo special diagnostic or therapeutic measures, CNS MRI as well as cytology and flow cytometry of the cerebrospinal fluid are suggested for high-risk patients (and patients with testicular involvement) at diagnosis, and prophylactic high-dose methotrexate in patients without proven CNS involvement. Future risk and treatment models may include molecular features and new treatment options.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We report an unusual and interesting case of non-Hodgkin lymphoma involving 7 extranodal sites.In this case, a 43-year-old woman with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, including stomach, breasts, pancreas, adrenal glands, ovary and bones, was confirmed by biopsy and positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan. The patient achieved a complete response after 2 cycles of chemotherapy with combined rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone, but subsequently developed central nervous system involvement. CONCLUSION This case illustrated the usefulness of positron emission tomography/computed tomography in diagnosis, disease staging, and assessment of response to therapy. Selection of the optimal treatment regimen is challenging and needs further research.

Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) relapse in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) carries a very poor prognosis. Risk factors and outcome have been studied in aggressive B-cell lymphomas, but very little is known about the risk in peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). We aimed at analyzing risk factors for CNS involvement at first relapse or progression, as well as the outcome of these patients, in a large population-based cohort of patients with PTCL. Twenty-eight out of 625 patients (4.5%) developed CNS disease over time. In multivariable analysis, disease characteristics at diagnosis independently associated with an increased risk for later CNS involvement were involvement of more than 1 extranodal site (hazard ratio [HR], 2.60; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-6.29; P = .035) and skin (HR, 3.51; 95% CI, 1.26-9.74; P = .016) and gastrointestinal involvement (HR, 3.06; 95% CI, 1.30-7.18; P = .010). The outcome of relapsed/refractory patients was very poor, and CNS involvement was not associated with a significantly worse outcome compared with relapsed/refractory patients without CNS involvement in multivariable analysis (HR, 1.6; 95% CI, 0.96-2.6; P = .074). The results from the present study indicate that CNS relapse in PTCL occurs at a frequency similar to what is seen in aggressive B-cell lymphomas, but the poor outcomes in relapse are largely driven by systemic rather than CNS disease.

Abstract
SUMMARY CNS relapse is a devastating and frequently lethal complication in patients with lymphoma, and selecting patients to receive CNS-directed prophylaxis is a common and frequently challenging decision for the clinician. Histologic subtype, anatomic location, molecular and clinical risk factors may all be used to stratify patients for CNS risk. In this paper we focus on these issues and attempt to provide practical guidance for the clinician in selecting which patients with lymphoma may benefit from CNS prophylaxis.

Abstract
It is known that extranodal head and neck diffuse large B cell lymphomas (eHN-DLBCL) can affect various anatomical structures what is not well-known, however, is whether they differ in terms of clinical presentation and outcome. Clinical data of the multi-institutional series, the largest of its kind as yet, has been analysed with the aim of answering these open questions and providing long-term follow-up information. Data from 488 patients affected by stage I/II eHN-DLBCL was collected: 300 of the Waldeyer's Ring (WR), 38 of the parotid and salivary glands (PSG), 48 of the thyroid gland (TG), 53 of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses (NPS), 24 of the palate and oral cavity (POC) and 25 with more than one involved site. Different eHN-DLBCL arising have distinct characteristics at presentation. The intermediate high risk-modified IPI was 67 % in TG, 44 % in WR, 38 % in PSG and POC and 20 % in MS. The worst 5-year survival rate had TG-DLBCL (61 %) due to the 61 % of patients with a mIPI >1. The addition of radiotherapy (cRT) to remitters did not translate into a survival advantage (5-year disease-free survival of 67 % in the cRT group vs. 70 % in the other). Three of four central nervous system recurrences occurred in NPS-DLBCL. Survival of HN-DLBCL was inferior to nodal DLBCL. This study showed that eHN-DLBCL remitters have an inferior survival when compared to nodal DLBCL, and that the addition of cRT does not provide a survival advantage. Since the standard of care nowadays is chemo-immunotherapy, survival of these patients might have been improved.

Abstract
Optimal treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma depends on establishing an accurate diagnosis and determining the stage or anatomic extent of the lymphoma. With this information, the treating clinician can assign the lymphoma to a subgroup characterized by expected natural history: indolent, aggressive, acute leukemia-like or viral, which generally reflects the typical behavior of the disease unmodified by treatment and indicates the urgency with which intervention must be offered. Finally, a number of special circumstances and problems posed by specific lymphomas must be anticipated and the therapeutic plan altered to accommodate them. After primary treatment, special secondary events such as transformation to more aggressive histologic types must be recognized and the treatment plan must be altered to address these events. This article reviews standard diagnostic grouping of lymphomas, special problems encountered during primary diagnosis and subsequent clinical evolution and emphasizes the cooperative interaction between the hematopathologist and the treating clinician that underlies optimal management.

Abstract
Background: The incidence and risk factors of central nervous system (CNS) involvement in peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are still unclear. Patients and methods: We analyzed 228 patients with PTCLs, excluding cases of extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma and primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, by retrospectively collecting the clinical features and outcomes of the patients. Results: Twenty events (8.77%, 20/228) of CNS involvement were observed during a median follow-up period of 13.9 months (range 0.03–159.43). Based on univariate analysis, elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level [P = 0.019, relative risk (RR) 5.904, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.334–26.123] and involvement of the paranasal sinus (P = 0.032, RR 3.137, 95% CI 1.105–8.908) adversely affect CNS involvement. In multivariate analysis, both were independently poor prognostic factors for CNS relapse [elevated LDH level: P = 0.011, hazard ratio (HR) 6.716, 95% CI 1.548–29.131; involvement of the paranasal sinus: P = 0.008, HR 3.784, 95% CI 1.420–10.083]. The survival duration of patients with CNS involvement was significantly shorter than that of the patients without CNS involvement (P = 0.009), with median overall survival of 7.60 months (95% CI of 4.92–10.28) versus 27.43 months (95% CI of 0.00–57.38), respectively. Conclusions: Elevated LDH level and involvement of the paranasal sinus are two risk factors for CNS involvement in patients with PTCLs. Considering the poor prognoses after CNS relapse, prophylaxis should be considered with the presence of any risk factor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence and risk factors of central nervous system (CNS) invasion is still unclear in extranodal natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type. PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed 208 patients to study the clinical features and outcomes of CNS disease in extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma. RESULTS Twelve patients (5.76%, 12/208) experienced CNS disease during treatment or follow-up period (median 11.62 months, range 0.2-123.2 months). The clinical variables associated with CNS disease were Ann Arbor stage III/IV (15.87%, P <0.001), regional lymph node involvement (10.41%, P = 0.006), group III/IV of NK/T-cell lymphoma prognostic index (NKPI; 10.20%, P = 0.003), high/high-intermediate international prognostic index (9.30%, P = 0.072) and extra-upper aerodigestive primary sites (9.75%, P = 0.008). In multivariate analysis, NKPI retained the strongest statistical power to predict CNS disease (P = 0.007, relative risk 9.289, 95% confidence interval 1.828-47.212) in extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS Despite extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma frequently involves paranasal sinus, a routine CNS evaluation and prophylaxis do not seem to be necessary in NKPI group I or II patients due to a very low incidence. Nevertheless, CNS prophylaxis should be considered in NKPI groups III and IV.

Abstract
The aim of our study is to describe two cases of testicular localization of non-Hodgkin Lymphoma associated with the involvement of other extranodal organs, and to investigate the possible causes of this association according to the evidences found in literature. Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma is extranodal in 25% of cases. Most of the times the organs involved are stomach, bowel, skin, central nervous system. About urological localizations, the most common is testis. Very rare is to find lymphoma in kidney, prostate, urinary bladder, and ureter. Testicular lymphoma is about 5% of testis malignancies; it is more frequent in the 7th and in the 8th decade. Metastases of testicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma are described also many years later, and also in distant organs. Primary forms are usually “diffuse large B cell”, a high-grade histotype; metastatic ones often show Burkitt cells. The standard therapy used for non-Hodgkin Lymphomas does not reach testis and central nervous system, so that these sites are called “Therapeutic Shrines”. Therefore, in order to prevent testicular localization, it is necessary to use radiotherapy, and for nervous system prophylaxis it is necessary to administer intrathecal chemotherapy. More than one localization of non-Hodgkin lymphoma simultaneously found may indicate not only a metastatic spread, but also a multicentric origin. We describe two patients who had one testis removed because of a big mass that turned out to be a non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The first patient had been treated for a non-Hodgkin lymphoma of maxillary sinus 20 months before. The second patient showed contemporary involvement of other organs. In both cases the different localizations of non-Hodgkin lymphoma showed the same histological features and cellular immunophenotype. It is important to underline that in the former patient staging TC, repeated many times, had always been negative, but physical examination of testis had been omitted, so that sinonasal localization, assumed to be the first one, really might have been the spread of an undetected testis lymphoma. In conclusion, in case of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma or any other malignancies, manual or ultrasound examination of testis should never be omitted, because standard techniques of staging (TC, RMN, PET) cannot explore this organ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To describe the clinical features, imaging, histologic spectrum, treatment and prognosis of patients with malignant orbital lymphoproliferative disorders extending from the paranasal sinuses. METHODS Patients were culled from the University of British Columbia Orbit Clinic (1977-2004) and their clinical charts, imaging and pathology specimens reviewed. RESULTS The study included 6 patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and 5 multiple myeloma (MM). Orbital symptoms at presentation were periorbital swelling, diplopia, proptosis and pain. Major clinical findings were globe displacement, abnormal ocular movements, periorbital fullness, fifth nerve hypoesthesia and inflammatory signs. Imaging showed a soft tissue mass in one or more sinuses invading the orbit. Three NHL patients were still alive at last follow-up with one patient lost to follow-up. Two NHL patients and all MM died. CONCLUSION Presenting symptoms of malignant orbital lymphoproliferative disorders extending from the paranasal sinuses include mass effect occasionally with infiltrative and inflammatory characteristics accompanied by symptoms of sinus disease. On imaging, a soft tissue mass in the sinuses and orbit with bone destruction is commonly seen. Biopsy is essential for conclusive diagnosis. Treatment should be initiated promptly as local symptoms are frequently relieved and survival is possible, especially in cases of NHL.

Abstract
PURPOSE To describe the clinical, morphologic, and immunohistochemical features of a case of paranasal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTL) with ocular involvement. CASE REPORT In March 2005 the patient presented with a maxillary sinusitis and upper nasal obstruction. In July she underwent a nasal computed tomography (CT) scan and multiple biopsies of the granulomatous tissue in the nasal fossae. The diagnosis was NK/T non-Hodgkin's lymphoma nasal type, stage IV A. Afterwards she presented anterior uveitis. In September after the diagnosis of lymphoma the patient underwent a bone marrow biopsy and thoracic and abdominal CT scan. An ophthalmic examination including visual acuity assessment and fundoscopic examination was made. In October she started chemotherapy cycles. Maxillary CT scan and ophthalmic examinations were performed during the cycles. In January 2006 after severe recurrences of panuveitis a diagnostic vitrectomy was performed. RESULTS A diagnosis of T-lymphoma cells in the vitreous was made; the tumor was most likely originating from her paranasal NKTL. The condition of the patient deteriorated rapidly and she expired on February 2006. CONCLUSIONS Nasal and paranasal sinus lymphomas are rare, but aggressive diseases with a tendency to invade tissues and spread to CNS, including the eye. Ocular manifestations prior to systemic ones may be useful to monitor the response to therapy.
