Inflammatory Cells in Atypical Eruption of Lymphocyte Recovery Carry the Same Mutations as Neoplastic Myeloid Cells.

Cutaneous eruption of lymphocyte recovery (ELR) during bone marrow (BM) aplasia recovery after intensive chemotherapy has been reported in very few patients. The presence of skin rashes in patients with acute leukemia who are undergoing intensive chemotherapy and BM transplantation is a diagnostic challenge because of the clinical similarity between drug eruptions, infiltrates related to the relapse of the underlying disease, cutaneous graft-versus-host disease, and ELR. IDH1 mutations have been identified as a recurrent genetic anomaly in acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes.

Differential prognostic impact of GELTAMO-IPI in cell of origin subtypes of Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma as defined by the Hans algorithm.

The Grupo Español de Linfomas y Trasplantes de Médula Ósea International Prognostic Index (GELTAMO-IPI) stratifies four risk groups in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients treated with immunochaemotherapy: low (LR), low-intermediate (LIR), high-intermediate (HIR), and high (HR). The present study explores the effect of GELTAMO-IPI in the DLBCL subtypes defined by the immunohistochaemistry-based Hans algorithm, Germinal Centre B (GCB) and non-GCB. A multivariate Cox regression model including GELTAMO-IPI risk groups, cell of origin (COO) subtypes and their product was developed to evaluate interaction between the two variables.
