摘要
纵隔灰区淋巴瘤(mediastinal gray zone lymphoma)作为一个疾病实体,常不能依据现有的诊断标准进行分类。这类淋巴瘤同时具有纵隔弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤(PMBL)和经典霍奇金淋巴瘤(cHL)的特征。在2008年WHO造血与淋巴组织肿瘤分类中将其命名为“B细胞淋巴瘤,不能分类,具有介于弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤和经典霍奇金淋巴瘤之间的特征(BCLu)”。BCLu具有独特的临床特点、免疫表型和分子遗传学特征,临床过程更具侵袭性,预后较差。目前尚无达成共识的治疗方案,可参照侵袭性B细胞淋巴瘤的方案化疗。
As a distinct clinicopathological entity, mediastinal gray zone lymphoma cannot be classified by using differential diagnostic criteria. The cases represent a spectrum of tumors having characteristics of both primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBL) and classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). In the 2008 WHO Classification, a novel category designated B-cell lymphoma, unclassifiable, with features intermediate between diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and classical Hodgkin lymphoma (BCLu) has been created to include these neoplasms. The main features of BCLu are clearly different from those of conventional mediastinal large B-cell lymphomas. Diagnosis of BCLu requires a multiparameter approach incorporating morphological, immunophenotypic, immunohistochemical and other features. These lymphomas generally have a more aggressive clinical course and poorer outcome. There is no consensus on the optimum treatment, while the recommended therapies for aggressive B-cell lymphomas might be effective options.
