The activating mutation ofMYD88has been identified in diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL). We investigated the mutational status and both the gene amplification and protein expression ofMYD88in 23 cases of testicular DLBCL. To detect theMYD88mutations, we employed the allele‐specific PCR and Sanger sequencing.MYD88gene amplification and protein expression were analyzed by quantitative PCR and by immunohistochemistry, respectively. There were 17 cases of primary testicular DLBCL: 94% (16/17) exhibited a non‐Germinal center B‐cell (non‐GCB) subtype, 82% (14/17) showed theMYD88L265P, and 65% (11/17) had intense expression ofMYD88. When compared with normal lymph nodes, theMYD88is significantly amplified in primary testicular DLBCL. However, the amplification status showed no correlation with its mutational status or protein expression. Moreover, neither theMYD88mutational status nor the expression pattern affected overall survival. Six cases were secondary testicular DLBCL with an 83% (5/6) and an 80% (4/5) incidence of the non‐GCB subtype and of theMYD88L265P, respectively. In conclusion, we demonstrated a high prevalence of the non‐GCB subtype and the commonMYD88L265P in both primary and secondary testicular DLBCL. Our data suggest that theMYD88mutation is a fairly consistent genetic feature in testicular DLBCL.
