Detection of clonal IGH and IGK gene rearrangements supports a neoplastic process and helps differentiate EBV-positive DLBCL from reactive, polyclonal B-cell proliferations.<ref>{{Cite journal|title=BlueBooksOnline|url=https://tumourclassification.iarc.who.int/chaptercontent/63/149}}</ref> However, the major oncogenic driver rearrangements seen in other aggressive B-cell lymphoma such as the ‘double/triple-hit’ rearrangements involving ''MYC, BCL2, or BCL6'' are rare in EBV-positive DLBCL<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Liu|first=Hui|last2=Xu-Monette|first2=Zijun Y|last3=Tang|first3=Guilin|last4=Wang|first4=Wei|last5=Kim|first5=Young|last6=Yuan|first6=Ji|last7=Li|first7=Yu|last8=Chen|first8=Weina|last9=Li|first9=Yanping|date=2022|title=EBV+ high-grade B cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements: a multi-institutional study|url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/his.14585|journal=Histopathology|language=en|volume=80|issue=3|pages=575–588|doi=10.1111/his.14585|issn=1365-2559}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last=Frontzek|first=Fabian|last2=Staiger|first2=Annette M.|last3=Wullenkord|first3=Ramona|last4=Grau|first4=Michael|last5=Zapukhlyak|first5=Myroslav|last6=Kurz|first6=Katrin S.|last7=Horn|first7=Heike|last8=Erdmann|first8=Tabea|last9=Fend|first9=Falko|date=2023-03|title=Molecular profiling of EBV associated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma|url=https://www.nature.com/articles/s41375-022-01804-w|journal=Leukemia|language=en|volume=37|issue=3|pages=670–679|doi=10.1038/s41375-022-01804-w|issn=1476-5551|pmc=9991915|pmid=36604606}}</ref>. Its pathogenesis is driven more by EBV-related mechanisms and distinct genetic alterations than by these characteristic translocations. ''IRF4'' rearrangements involving known partners such as ''IGH'' and more recently ''RHOH'' have also been described in EBV-positive DLBCL<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal|last=Zhang|first=Yuxiu|last2=Li|first2=Anqi|last3=Li|first3=Yimin|last4=Ouyang|first4=Binshen|last5=Wang|first5=Xuan|last6=Zhang|first6=Lei|last7=Xu|first7=Haimin|last8=Gu|first8=Yijin|last9=Lu|first9=Xinyuan|date=2024-11|title=Clinicopathological and Molecular Characteristics of Rare EBV-associated Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma With IRF4 Rearrangement|url=https://journals.lww.com/10.1097/PAS.0000000000002301|journal=American Journal of Surgical Pathology|language=en|volume=48|issue=11|pages=1341–1348|doi=10.1097/PAS.0000000000002301|issn=0147-5185}}</ref>. ''RHOH'', is an RHO GTPase family member and negative regulator of cell growth, has been described as a fusion partner in other lymphoid neoplasms but is more commonly linked to non-coding somatic hypermutation in DLBCL<ref name=":0" /> Clinically, morphologically as well as at the molecular level, EBV+DLBCL-''IRF4''-R resemble and behave like EBV+DLBCL<ref name=":0" />

|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> Yes (WHO, NCCN)
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span>
The t(9;22) is diagnostic of CML in the appropriate morphology and clinical context (add reference). This fusion is responsive to targeted therapy such as Imatinib (Gleevec) (add reference). BCR::ABL1 is generally favorable in CML (add reference).

|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> ''CIC''
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> ''CIC::DUX4''
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> Typically, the last exon of ''CIC'' is fused to ''DUX4''. The fusion breakpoint in ''CIC'' is usually intra-exonic and removes an inhibitory sequence, upregulating ''PEA3'' genes downstream of ''CIC'' including ''ETV1'', ''ETV4'', and ''ETV5''.
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> t(4;19)(q25;q13)
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> Common (CIC-rearranged sarcoma)
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> D
|
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span>
''DUX4'' has many homologous genes; an alternate translocation in a minority of cases is t(10;19), but this is usually indistinguishable from t(4;19) by short-read sequencing (add references).
|-
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> ''ALK''
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> ''ELM4::ALK''
Other fusion partners include ''KIF5B, NPM1, STRN, TFG, TPM3, CLTC, KLC1''
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> Fusions result in constitutive activation of the ''ALK'' tyrosine kinase. The most common ''ALK'' fusion is ''EML4::ALK'', with breakpoints in intron 19 of ''ALK''. At the transcript level, a variable (5’) partner gene is fused to 3’ ''ALK'' at exon 20. Rarely, ''ALK'' fusions contain exon 19 due to breakpoints in intron 18.
