Case study:

Malignant lymphoma of ovary, large B cell, diffuse
Skitsa Xenia

Introduction:

Primary ovarian lymphoma (POL) refers to involvement of the ovary with lymphoma but without involvement of any other site. It is an extremely rare yet well recognized situation. It can accounts for 1.5% of ovarian tumours.

The rarity of this condition is probably contributed by lack of lymphoid tissue in the ovary. In almost all of cases instances it tends to comprise of non-Hodgkin lymphoma 0.5% of NHL tends to involve the ovary with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) being a dominant histological type. Burkitt lymphoma has also been infrequently described.

Radiographic features: CT Once the diagnosis is made CT is the preferred imaging modality of ongoing assessment particularly for staging purposes. Often tends to be hypo-attenuating on CT with mild enhancement post contrast. Ultrasound imaging features are usually non specific. MRI tends to be of relatively homogenous signal.

Staging: this is one of the rare situations where the FIGO staging system isn't used; the standard non-Hodgkin lymphoma staging system is used instead.

History:

Insignificant.

Laboratory values:

  • gastroscopy: Helicobacter pylori positive
  • ultrasound of abdomen: neoplastic mass on the right ovary

Therapy:

  • antimicrobial therapy to eradicate Helicobacter pylori
  • surgery and chemotherapy (as adjuvant therapy after surgery)

Histology:

Diffuse infiltrate of large lymphoid cells, CD20+, CD79a+, CD3-, CD5-, MUM1+, cytoplasmic bcl2+, nuclear bcl6+, cyclin D1-, Ki67 positive in almost 100% of nuclei.

Conclusion:

  • Malignant lymphoma, large B cell, diffuse, no ICD-O subtype.
