What antigens are lost in the following T-cell LPDs?
1) Adult T-cell Leukemia
2) Peripheral T NOS
3) ALCL
4) MF/Sezary
1) Adult T-cell Leukemia - CD7 neg w/ strong CD25
2) Peripheral T NOS - CD5 or CD7 neg
3) ALCL/ALK+ = CD3 neg, often CD5 and CD7 neg, usually CD43+, strong CD25+
4) ALCL/ALK- = CD3 neg, often lose T-cell marker
4) MF/Sezary = loss CD7 or diminished CD2, CD5, or sometimes CD3
What is the IPT profile of AITL?
T cells: CD4+, CD10, BCL6 with no loss pan-T markers, PD-1, CD10, CXCL13
FDM: disorganized & surrounds HEV
What cells in AITL can mimic HD?
EBV-driven large, often multinucleated R-S like cells as well as immunoblasts scattered throughout small to medium malignant T-cells with clear cytoplasm with minimal nuclear atypia
Which BCL marker is often seen in T-cell malignancies?
BCL2
What is the DDx for enteropathy-associated T-cell neoplasms?
Peripheral T NOS Enteropathy associatedT-cell with gamma/delta, CD56+, CD3+ALK+ ALCL (rare!)
What is the IHC profile for enteropathy associated T-cell? What other aberrancy can be found? Chrom abnml?
Type I: CD3+, CD4-, CD8-, CD56-, CD103+, TCRbeta/gamma+, subset CD30+ in most cases
Type II (monomorphic): CD3+, CD4-, CD8+, CD56+, TCRbeta/gamma+
Type I - Gain 1q or 5q; Type II - MYC amplifications (8q24)
What is the DDx in T-PLL? Chromosomal abnormalities? Molecular findings?
