A 72-year-old previously healthy woman presented with acute abdominal pain and a 10-lb weight loss. Positron emission tomography demonstrated [F-18]fluorodeoxyglucose-avid mesenteric lymphadenopathy, with evidence of bowel compression near a 3 x 3 cm lymph node. Biopsy of this node revealed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), CD10+, with Ki-67 staining 80% of malignant cells (Figs 1A to 1D). BCL2 immunostaining was positive; MYC immunostaining was not performed. Fluorescent in situ hybridization revealed evidence of a t(14; 18) BCL2 translocation and evidence of an MYC gene rearrangement that was not t(8; 14) (Figs 2A and 2B). Bone marrow biopsy was negative, and serum lactate dehydrogenase was minimally elevated. The patient is now referred to you to discuss the prognosis and management of stage IIa DLBCL, International Prognostic Index score of 2, with double-hit genetic features.
