Waldeyer ring lymphomas. A clinicopathological study of 79 cases.

Abstract:

:Waldeyer ring lymphomas belong to a category of tumours which has not yet been fully defined. Their relation to mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) and other extranodal lymphomas remains largely unknown. We performed a clinicopathological retrospective study of 79 patients, and compared them with a series of MALT and nodal lymphomas. Tumours from the nasopharynx and palatine tonsil showed similar histological profiles, with a predominance of large B-cells. Centroblastic lymphomas constituted the largest group (n = 45), followed by those of centrocytic type (9) with smaller groups of centroblastic-centrocytic (5) and Hodgkin's lymphomas (2). Three monocytoid B-cell lymphomas were identified. Only one case could be classified as MALT lymphoma. The frequency of bcl-2 expression in large B-cell tumours of Waldeyer's ring has an intermediate range between large B-cell lymphomas occurring in mucosal and nodal locations. Epitheliotropism was present in all low-grade cases, and was therefore not a useful marker in the identification of potential MALT lymphomas in contrast with other mucosal sites. Comparative survival studies showed significant overall differences between Waldeyer ring lymphomas, MALT and nodal cases. These disappeared after taking stage and histological grade into account. We conclude that Waldeyer ring lymphomas show distinctive features, mainly in terms of histological distribution and immunophenotype. The key factor determining their behaviour could be their different spreading capability. These findings suggest that extranodal lymphomas are heterogeneous, and indicate the need for additional efforts to clarify this.
