*Hairy Cell Leukemia&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Definition / Description of Disease==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare indolent neoplasm of B-cell origin seen mostly in adults&lt;br /&gt;
*Name derives from the the hair-like projections of the cytoplasm that surround the cells&lt;br /&gt;
*Hairy cells most closely resemble mature lymphoid cells&lt;br /&gt;
*Marked splenomegaly and marrow infiltration result in left flank discomfort, fatigue, and susceptibility to infections&lt;br /&gt;
*Most respond well to monotherapy with a purine analog or interferon alpha&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;The WHO states that BRAF p.Val600Glu is detected in virtually all cases and notes that the classification of B-cell leukemias that are immunophenotypically and morphologically classified as HCL but lack BRAF activating mutations (but instead have MAP2K1 activating mutations and use the IGHV4-34 gene segment) is uncertain.  These seem to be more similar molecularly and clinically to [[Hairy Cell Leukemia Variant|HCLv]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*BRAF and MAP2K1 activating mutations are mutually exclusive&lt;br /&gt;
*BRAF p.Val600Glu and MAP2K1 account for the primary oncogene drivers in the majority of HCL (~95%)&lt;br /&gt;
*BRAF p.Val600Glu (p.V600E) accounts for the majority of BRAF mutations, but other have been reported&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal|last=Tschernitz|first=Sebastian|last2=Flossbach|first2=Lucia|last3=Bonengel|first3=Margrit|last4=Roth|first4=Sabine|last5=Rosenwald|first5=Andreas|last6=Geissinger|first6=Eva|date=2014|title=Alternative BRAF mutations in BRAF V600E-negative hairy cell leukaemias|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24433452|journal=British Journal of Haematology|volume=165|issue=4|pages=529–533|doi=10.1111/bjh.12735|issn=1365-2141|pmid=24433452}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
