Primary gastric mantle cell lymphoma is a rare form of gastointestinal tumour. Although peritoneal carcinomatosis accompanied by malignant ascites is relatively common, mantle cell lymphoma presenting with ascites is rare. Also, effusions involving pericardial and pleural cavities are uncommon during the course of lymphomas. We report the first case in which pericardial, pleural and peritoneal effusion of a primary gastric mantle cell lymphoma.

Article Synopsis
  • Cladribine reduces DNA, RNA, and histone methylation and works well with rituximab to treat B-cell lymphomas.
  • A phase I study found that combining bortezomib, cladribine, and rituximab is safe and effective for elderly patients with mantle cell lymphoma, with an overall response rate of 84.6%.
  • The treatment shows promising outcomes, including high complete remission rates and identified DNA methylation biomarkers that may indicate effective responses.

Brexucabtagene autoleucel (brexu-cel) has revolutionized the treatment of patients affected by mantle cell lymphomas. In this prospective, observational multicentre study, we evaluated 106 patients, with longitudinal brexu-cel kinetics in peripheral blood monitored in 61 of them. Clinical outcomes and toxicities are consistent with previous real-world evidence studies.

Cell adhesion is warranted by proteins that are crucial for the maintenance of tissue integrity and homeostasis. Most of these proteins behave as receptors to link adhesion to the control of cell survival and their expression or regulation are often altered in cancers. B-cell malignancies do not evade this principle as they are sustained in relapsed niches by interacting with the microenvironment that includes cells and their secreted factors.

Primary vertebral lymphoma is an exceedingly rare entity. We hereby report a case of a 67-year-old male who presented to our department with fever, weight loss, and progressively worsening lower back pain radiating to the right hip. Physical examination showed pain on percussion of the dorsal and lumbar spine and tenderness on palpation of the right upper thigh area.
