Primary adrenal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PA-DLBCL) is a rare subtype of extranodal DLBCL. Because of the rarity of this disease, its morphologic and genetic features are not comprehensively studied. Here, we systematically reviewed the clinicopathologic features of 42 cases of PA-DLBCL from our institution and investigated the frequency of MYD88 L265P and CD79B (exon 5) mutation in 29 eligible cases using Sanger sequencing. Clinically, PA-DLBCL was predominant in elderly male patients with advanced clinical stage and poor outcomes. Morphologically, the tumors often showed a sinusoidal and/or cohesive pattern with condensed chromatin and inconspicuous nucleolus which mimicked neuroendocrine carcinoma. Moreover, increased Reed-Sternberg–like cells were observed frequently. These confounding morphologic manifestations may lead to misdiagnosis. Genetically, PA-DLBCL harbored a high prevalence of MYD88 L265P (24%) and CD79B muta... Find the complete article at the AJSP Blog.
