The gastrointestinal tract is the most common extranodal site of lymphoma involvement. Although B-cell lymphomas are by far the most frequent type found in this location, gastrointestinal lymphomas are a diverse group of neoplasms, many of which are characterized by distinctive clinicopathologic settings. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and marginal-zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue are commonly encountered, but other less-common entities can pose diagnostic challenges, mimicking both benign, reactive conditions and each other. We describe several different lymphoma subtypes, with a focus on frequently encountered challenges in differential diagnosis.

Abstract Background: CD5 expression in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has a poor prognosis but the prognostic value of CD5 expression in marginal zone lymphoma is undefined. Methods: Clinicopathological features, survival outcomes, and prognostic implications of marginal zone lymphoma were retrospectively analyzed in 204 patients. We classified patients into (i) CD5-positive marginal zone lymphoma (ii) CD5-negative marginal zone Lymphoma, Fisher's exact test was used to compare the CD5-positive and CD5-negative marginal zone lymphoma. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) curves were summarized by Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test, The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: CD5 expression is rare in marginal zone lymphoma, of 204 patients, only 48 (23.53%) had CD5-positive. Due to the characterized of slow growth and locally aggressive nature, the prognosis is favorable after treatment. at the end of the followup 179 patients were still alive,163 patients never progressed. The 5-year PFS and OS rates for marginal zone lymphoma were 65.10% and 77.30% respectively, the 5-year PFS and OS rates for CD5-positive marginal zone lymphoma were 64.80% and 84.10%, there is no significant difference between CD5-positive and CD5-negative ( P =0.829, P =0.521). Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) transformation was pathologically indicated in 6 patients, of which 5(83.33%) patients were CD5-positive marginal zone lymphoma. Conclusion: CD5 expression in marginal zone lymphoma is not independently prognostic for PFS and OS. But CD5-positive marginal zone lymphoma seems more likely to transformation to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Low-grade marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type can transform into high-grade diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Up to 60% of the MALT lymphomas contain the recently described t(11;18). However, this translocation has not been detected in any DLBCL so far. To elucidate the pathogenesis of these tumors, microsatellite screening of 24 gastric MALT lymphomas was performed and the results were compared with aberrations detected in a previous study on gastric DLBCL. The most frequent aberration, found in 21% of the MALT lymphomas that were exclusively t(11;18)-negative cases, was amplification of the 3q26.2-27 region (harboring the locus of the BCL6 gene). Allelic imbalances in regions 3q26.2-27, 6q23.3-25, 7q31, 11q23-24, and 18q21 were shared by both MALT lymphoma and DLBCL. Loss of heterozygosity in regions 5q21 (APC gene locus), 9p21 (INK4A/ARF), 13q14 (RB), and 17p13(p53) and allelic imbalances in 2p16, 6p23, and 12p12-13 occurred exclusively in DLBCL. Only one of 10 t(11;18)-positive MALT lymphomas showed an additional clonal abnormality. These tumors thus display features of a clonal proliferation characterized by the presence of the t(11;18). However, they only rarely display secondary aberrations and do not seem to transform into DLBCL. In contrast, t(11;18)-negative MALT lymphomas show numerous allelic imbalances—some of them identical with aberrations seen in DLBCL—suggesting that this group is the source of tumors eventually transforming into high-grade DLBCL.
