Dear Editor, Gastrointestinal (GI) amyloidosis is classified into systemic and localized types, based on its underlying conditions [1]. The localized type, which is quite rare, remains a debated clinicopathological entity associated with malignant lymphomas and a recently suggested localized B cell neoplasia of undetermined significance (BNL)[2–4]. We describe a case of solitary follicular lymphoma (FL) with plasmacytic differentiation and peritumoral immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis in the jejunum. A 69-year-old Japanese woman with epigastralgia, who had undergone an oophorectomy for an ovarian cyst 33 years ago, visited a clinic. Upper endoscopy detected Bormann type 4 advanced gastric cancer in the antero-inferior gastric body. The patient was transferred to our hospital for surgical treatment. Pre-operative total colonoscopy findings showed two adenomas in the ascending colon and rectosigmoid junction. The patient was treated with robotic-assisted distal gastrectomy. A solitary submucosal tumor (SMT), 16 mm in diameter, was incidentally found on the jejunum, which was resected for a Roux-en-Y reconstruction region (Fig. 1 a). Postoperatively, the stomach was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma, lymph node metastasis, and pathological stage IIA. Adjuvant chemotherapy was started, but ceased due to her adverse blurred vision. Histopathological findings of the SMT in the resected jejunum showed that the cells in follicles were mostly classical centrocytes, while there were many plasmacytic lymphocytes and rare Dutcher bodies in the interfollicular areas, adjacent to pink amorphous deposits (Fig. 1 a, b, c). There were no lymphoepithelial lesions (Suppl. 1). The follicle cells were positive for CD10, CD20, CD79a, and Bcl-2 and almost negative for CD138 (Fig. 1 d, e, f, g, h, i). The plasmacytic lymphocytes, and the peri-follicles to interfollicular and amorphous deposit areas, were positive for CD10, CD79a, Bcl-2, CD138, and immunoglobulin lambda light chain (Fig. 1 d, e, g, h, i, j, k), but negative for kappa light chain (Suppl. 1). Antibodies for immunoglobulin heavy chains G, A, and M were not restricted. The amorphous pink deposits were positive for Congo red staining and revealed green-yellow-orange birefringence in cross-polarized light, and negative for transthyretin, amyloid AA, and b2-microglobulin (Fig. 1 l)(Suppl. 1c). Genomic DNA was extracted from the follicle areas and amyloid areas in the paraffin-embedded SMT slide sections by laser microdissection, and each DNA was used as the template for amplification of immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) gene rearrangements. The expression patterns of IGH variable-joining and diversityjoining from a follicle area were completely identical to its patterns from an amyloid area, indicating that the plasmacytic interfollicular cells commonly originated from the follicular centrocytes (Suppl. 1d). Serum and urine immunofixation studies were negative for monoclonal protein, and the kappa/lambda ratio of the free light chain was 0.64. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed no enhanced FDG uptake in her body, including the GI tract. Collectively, the patient was pathologically diagnosed with solitary FL grade 1 with plasmacytic differentiation and localized lambda AL amyloidosis, with a low risk based on the FLIPI classification, and stage I according to the Lugano classification of primary GI tract lymphoma. The patient received no therapy and remained well for over a year.
