Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary leptomeningeal lymphoma (PLML) without brain parenchymal involvement or systemic disease is very rare, comprising of approximately 7% of all primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSL). PLML is a diagnosis of exclusion which should be confirmed on biopsy after ruling out metastasis from systemic lymphomas and dissemination from PCNSL. CASE DESCRIPTION A 21-year-old patient presented with the chief complaints of headache, diplopia, decreased vision for five months, and a swelling on the left side of the forehead for four months. On radiology, a large, lobulated, extra-axial mass lesion along the left frontal region with its base towards dura noted. No parenchymal or subependymal CNS lesions were found on CT/MRI. Histopathology was reported as primary leptomeningeal CD30 positive diffuse large B cell lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS PLML is a very rare meningeal tumor that requires a very high index of suspicion and is always a diagnosis of exclusion.

Abstract
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is the abnormal growth of bone in soft connective tissues that occurs as a frequent complication in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and in rare genetic disorders. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms behind ectopic bone formation in response to TBI is likely to have a significant impact on identification of novel therapeutic targets for HO treatment. In this study, we induced repetitive mild TBI (mTBI) using a weight drop model in mice and then stimulated HO formation via a local injury to the Achilles tendon or fibula. The amount of ectopic bone, as evaluated by micro-CT analyses, was increased by four-fold in the injured leg of mTBI mice compared to control mice. However, there was no evidence of HO formation in the uninjured leg of mTBI mice. Since tissue injury leads to the activation of hypoxia signaling, which is known to promote endochondral ossification, we evaluated the effect of IOX2, a chemical inhibitor of PHD2 and a known inducer of hypoxia signaling on HO development in response to fibular injury. IOX2 treatment increased HO volume by five-fold compared to vehicle. Since pericytes located in the endothelium of microvascular capillaries are known to function as multipotent tissue-resident progenitors, we determined if activation of hypoxia signaling promotes pericyte recruitment at the injury site. We found that markers of pericytes, NG2 and PDGFRβ, were abundantly expressed at the site of injury in IOX2 treated mice. Treatment of pericytes with IOX2 for 72 h stimulated expression of targets of hypoxia signaling (Vegf and Epo), as well as markers of chondrocyte differentiation (Col2α1 and Col10α1). Furthermore, serum collected from TBI mice was more effective in promoting the proliferation and differentiation of pericytes than control mouse serum. In conclusion, our data show that the hypoxic state at the injury site in soft tissues of TBI mice provides an environment leading to increased accumulation and activation of pericytes to form endochondral bone.

Abstract
PCNSL (primary central nervous system lymphoma) is a chemosensitive and radiosensitive tumor, and early diagnosis has a significant impact on management. Unlike many other brain tumors, radical surgical excision of PCNSLs is not indicated because these lesions are highly infiltrative and even partial resection leads to a bad prognosis. The goal of this study is to highlight the unusual radiological presentation of PCNSLs and increase the awareness, familiarity, and global database of our observations that pose a challenge on management.

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus-positive (EBV+) primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a clinical entity rarely reported in young immunocompetent patients. Here, we present the case of a 40-year-old female with no history of immunosuppression or immunodeficiency, who presented with a ring-enhancing lesion in the right basal ganglia. The tumor generated significant vasogenic edema and mass effect, causing midline shift, symptoms of increased intracranial pressure, and rapidly progressive neurologic dysfunction. She underwent gross total resection of the tumor through a tubular retractor. Her tumor was of the diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) subtype of PCNSL and was positive for EBV. No immunodeficiency or extracranial disease was identified. After adjuvant therapy with high-dose methotrexate, rituximab, and temozolomide, she remains disease-free two years after initial presentation. EBV+ PCNSL, although rare in young immunocompetent adults, poses unique clinical challenges and may require surgical intervention in the acute setting in some cases.

Clinicopathological features of primary central nervous system diffuse large B cell lymphoma: Experience from a Tertiary Center in North India. Surg Neurol Int 2020; 11:424. [PMID: 33365186 PMCID: PMC7749964 DOI: 10.25259/sni_314_2020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 11/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary central nervous system-diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PCNS-DLBCL) is a rare extra-nodal Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. There is relative paucity of literature on PCNSL from Indian subcontinent. We aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features of PCNSL and categorize them into germinal center B cell (GCB) and non-GCB subtypes to assess their prognostic significance in Indian context. METHODS All patients with histopathologically diagnosed PCNSLs at our center over a period of 6 years were recruited and classified into GCB and non-GCB using Han's algorithm (immunohistochemistry for CD10, BCL6 and MUM1). In situ hybridization (ISH) for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded RNA was performed. RESULTS Eighty-six cases of PCNS-DLBCL were included with median age of 55 years. Majority of them were supratentorial in location (n = 62). All patients were immunocompetent. On immunohistochemical assessment, 69 (80.2%) were of NGCB subtype, 10 (11.6%) were of GCB subtype, and 7 (8.1%) were unclassified. Overall, MUM1, BCL-6, and CD10 expressions were seen in 69 (80.2%), 28 (32.6%), and 2 cases (2.3%), respectively. Four cases (4.6%) showed C-MYC expression. The median overall survival (OS) was 675 days. None of the factors (age, sex, location, immunomarkers, and GCB vs. NGCB phenotype) showed correlation with OS; however, BCL6 positive cases showed slight better OS (P > 0.05). All cases were negative for EBV-LMP1 on ISH. CONCLUSION The majority of the CNS DLBCL belongs to non-GCB phenotype and uniformly carry poor prognosis, irrespective of their phenotype. Individual markers, such as BCL-6, MUM1, or CD10, are unable to predict outcome in PCNS-DLBCL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies suggest a relatively high prevalence of autoimmune disorders (AD) among primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) patients, however, the literature is limited to case reports. To gain a better understanding of AD-PCNSL we reviewed and analyzed all cases described in the literature. METHODS We searched the MEDLINE database using the search terms 'central nervous system lymphoma' or 'CNS lymphoma' along with AD-related terms. We selected 39 records for qualitative synthesis of data and identified 50 AD-PCNSL. Clinical, imaging and outcome data were collected. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed with the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using log rank test and Cox proportional hazard model. RESULTS Most common AD were systemic lupus erythematosus (24%), multiple sclerosis (16%), and myasthenia gravis (14%). All patients had received immunosuppressants for their AD. Median interval from AD until PCNSL diagnosis was 108 months (range: 11-420). Male-to-female ratio was 0.42 and AD-PCNSL was diagnosed at a median age of 57 years (range: 2-88). On imaging lesions typically localized to the hemispheres (65%) and displayed peripheral enhancement (74%). Pathological evaluation revealed diffuse large-B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) subtype (80%) and Epstein-Barr virus positivity (75%) in most AD-PCNSL. Median OS was 31 months. Age > 60 years (p = 0.014) was identified as a significant prognostic factor. CONCLUSIONS AD requiring immunosuppression appear over-represented in the population of PCNSL patients. Aggressive polychemotherapy can accomplish long term OS in AD-PCNSL comparable to immunocompetent patients. Age > 60 may serve as a prognostic factor.

Abstract
Primary central nervous system (CNS) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) represents less than 1% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas and 2%-3% of brain tumors. Primary CNS DLBCL occurs sporadically in healthy patients. Tumor development and progression have been associated with reduced/absent expression of human leukocyte antigen class I and II proteins; increased expression of CXCR4, CXCL12, CXCR5, and CCR7; mutations of VH4/34, BCL6, MYC, and PAX5 genes; and rearrangement of immunoglobulin heavy and light chain genes. Generally, DLBCL is a single supratentorial lesion (60%-70%), and stereotactic biopsy and intraoperative examination are the main diagnostic methods. Distinctive histologic features are a diffuse growth pattern and angioinvasiveness. Most neoplastic cells resemble centroblasts and exhibit positive CD20, CD22, PAX5, CD79a, and MUM1 expression. The prognosis of primary CNS DLBCL is less favorable than that of nodal DLBCL, and DLBCL subtype, strong FOXP1 immunoreactivity, MYC and BCL2 overexpression, and BCL6 translocations are associated with poor prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE The information about the outcome of primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) in India is scarce, because there is no population-based or large hospital-based data. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective study that spanned 17 years (2001 to 2017) to study the outcome of PCNSL at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), which is a tertiary care center in Northern India. RESULTS Only one of 99 patients was positive for HIV serology. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was the most common histology (97.7%). The median patient age was 50 years (range, 13 to 70 years), and the ratio of men to women was 1.9. The median duration of symptoms before diagnosis was 3.5 months (range, 0.5 to 48 months), and 58.5% had a performance status (PS) of 3 or more. Multiple intracranial lesions were present in 81.8% of patients. Surgical resection was performed in 45%, and approximately 22% of patients were ineligible for treatment. Most patients (n = 73) were treated with high-dose methotrexate (HDMTX)–based regimens (ie, methotrexate, vincristine, and procarbazine with or without rituximab). Pharmacokinetic monitoring of methotrexate was not available at our center. HDMTX-related mortality was 3.9%. The median follow-up duration, event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival (OS) were 34 months, 20.4 months, and 31.7 months, respectively. Addition of rituximab (n = 27) to MVP resulted in a higher objective response rate (88.9% v 73.9% without rituximab; P = .12), complete remission (81.5% v 56.5%; P = .03), 2-year EFS (57.3% v 40.4%; P = .02), and 2-year OS (61.6% v 53.4%; P = .056). CONCLUSION This is the largest study of PCNSL from India. The patients were immunocompetent and young but presented with a high-burden disease that precluded treatment in approximately 22%. The treatment with HDMTX appears safe without pharmacokinetic monitoring. The outcome is comparable to those observed in the West, and rituximab use showed additional benefit. There are notable barriers with respect to management of PCNSL in the real world, and efforts are required to improve the outcome more.

Abstract
The 2008 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues has been recently revised, and publication of the updated 2016 version is expected soon. Given that cytopathologists are often involved in the diagnosis of primary, recurrent, and transformed lymphoproliferative disorders, knowledge of updates to the WHO lymphoma classification, including terminology, pathogenesis, ancillary techniques, and targeted therapies is necessary. Herein, we reference the last decade of cytology specific literature for seven newer B-cell disorders and provide illustrative examples of each entity from our files.
