An 80-year-old man underwent sigmoidectomy for adenocarcinoma. Six months later, after a near-syncope incident, pancytopenia was detected in the absence of occult blood in the stools. A bone marrow biopsy showed malignant lymphoma, suggestive of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Colonoscopy at this time revealed 3 colonic tubular adenomas. Reassessment of the histology of the colonic polyps and appropriate immunohistochemical stains showed that the lamina propria of one of the tubular adenomas was infiltrated by MCL. Reexamination of the sections taken at the time of the original sigmoidectomy showed MCL in 2 of the regional lymph nodes removed at that time, but no evidence of lymphoma in the colon was found. To our knowledge, this is the fifth reported case of synchronous occurrence of intestinal MCL and colonic carcinoma and the first report of MCL presenting in a tubular adenoma of the colon.

Background: Mantle cell lymphoma is a diverse B-cell lymphoma with varying clinical behaviors. Treating relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma is challenging, with Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors proving effective but not curative. Post-Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor failure, the prognosis remains unfavorable.

Background: Clonal mature B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders (B-LPDs) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasia characterized by the proliferation of mature B lymphocytes in the peripheral blood, bone marrow and/or lymphoid tissues. B-LPDs classification into different subtypes and their diagnosis is based on a multiparametric approach. However, accurate diagnosis may be challenging, especially in cases of ambiguous interpretation.

Changes in protein levels of the mammalian cleavage factor, CFIm25, play a role in regulating pathological processes including neural dysfunction, fibrosis, and tumorigenesis. However, despite these effects, little is known about how CFIm25 (NUDT21) expression is regulated at the RNA level. A potential regulator of NUDT21 mRNA are small non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs).

Although recent evidence suggests that myeloid clonal hematopoiesis (M-CH) may influence lymphoma clinical outcome, its impact in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) remains unclear. Here, we report a comprehensive NGS-based analysis of the M-CH mutational landscape at baseline and follow-up in patients enrolled in the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL) MCL0208 phase 3 trial (NCT02354313), evaluating lenalidomide maintenance versus observation after chemoimmunotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in untreated young MCL patients. Overall, 254/300 (85%) enrolled patients (median age 57 years [32-66]) had a baseline sample available for CH analysis.
