We [1, 2] and others [3, 4] have reported the usefulness of liquid biopsy to diagnose primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSL) by detecting cell free circulating tumor dNA (cctdNA) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using droplet digital PCr (ddPCr). the gold standard for diagnosis of PCNSL still is surgical biopsy [5], but deeply located or small lesions can be challenging to diagnose because of the difficulty of tissue sampling. About 85% of PCNSLs harbor MYD88 L265P mutations; on the other hand, this mutation is rarely found in healthy individuals [3, 6]. Moreover, MYD88 L265P mutations have only been described in B cell malignancies such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia and igM monoclonal gammopathy [7], and has not been described in glioblastoma or in other metastatic solid brain tumors. thus, in patients with suspected brain tumor on Mri and/or Ct, its detection could be diagnostic for PCNSL [8]. We previously reported that MYD88 L265P mutations can be reliably detected in cctdNA extracted from CSF of CNS lymphoma patients, and found a 100% concordance in MYD88 L265P status in 21 patients with matched CSF and tumor samples [1]. Liquid biopsy can be an alternative diagnostic tool for patients who cannot undergo surgical biopsy, but there are pitfalls beyond technical error and proper sample handling to detect the genetic mutation of interest accurately. PCNSL is highly sensitive to glucocorticoids (GC). GCs can be administered initially because of the rapid progression of neurologic symptoms prior to neuro-oncology consultation. GC-induced apoptosis and shrinkage of the tumor may lead to morphological changes, and preoperative administration of GCs is known to hinder histopathological diagnosis [9, 10]. however, it is not known whether GC administration before liquid biopsy can affect the detection of MYD88 mutations in PCNSL patients. this retrospective study was conducted to clarify the impact of GC administration prior to liquid biopsy in PCNSL patients. Six PCNSL patients who underwent liquid biopsy in two centers from december 2020 to April 2022 and receiving GC administration prior to liquid biopsy were enrolled in the study. Approval of the institutional review board was attained at each center (approval# G2018-008 for Niigata University and# G183 for Kanazawa Medical University) and written consent was obtained from all patients or their families. All CSF samples were collected by lumbar puncture, cctdNA was extracted using the Maxwell rSC ccfdNA Plasma Kit (rSC; Promega, Leiden, the Netherlands), and MYD88 L265P mutations were detected by ddPCr as previously described [1, 2]. tumor derived tissue dNA was also extracted from frozen tissues or FFPe sections, using dNeasy Blood & tissue Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA) and QiAamp FFPe tissue Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA), respectively. For each patient, a volumetric analysis of all contrast enhancing lesions before and
