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). | |||

This disease is <u>defined/characterized</u> as detailed below: | |||
Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma, ALK-Positive (ALK+ ALCL) is a T-cell lymphoma characterized by usually large lymphoma cells with abundant cytoplasm and pleomorphic nuclei, often horse-shoe shaped (see Morphologic Features below), with a chromosomal rearrangement involving the ALK gene resulting in expression of ALK protein and CD30 | |||
* | The <u>epidemiology/prevalence</u> of this disease is detailed below: | ||
*ALCL ([[ALK]]+, ALK-, and primary cutaneous) account for <5% of all cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)<ref name=":0" /> | |||
*ALK+ ALCL<ref name=":0" /> | |||
**~3% of adult NHL | |||
**10-20% of childhood lymphomas | |||
**Most frequent in the first three decades of life | |||
**Male:female = 1.5:1 | |||
The <u>clinical features</u> of this disease are detailed below: | |||

*Lymphoma cells characterized by eccentric, horseshoe-shaped or kidney-shaped nuclei, often with eosinophilic cytoplasm accentuated near the nucleus | |||
*Usually large in size, but may also be smaller | |||
*Present in varying proportions | |||
*Seen in all morphological variants/patterns of ALK+ ALCL | |||
Morphological variants/patterns | |||
#Common (60%): predominant population of large hallmark cells | |||
#Lymphohistiocytic (10%): lymphoma cells are admixed with numerous reactive histiocytes that may obscure the lymphoma cells; lymphoma cells often cluster around vessels and are often smaller than in the common pattern | |||
#Small cell (5-10%): predominant population of smaller lymphoma cells; hallmark cells are often concentrated around vessels; may also see "fried egg cells" (pale cytoplasm with central nucleus) or signet ring-like cells; can misdiagnose of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, NOS | |||
#Hodgkin-like (3%): mimics nodular sclerosis classic Hodgkin lymphoma | |||
#Composite (15%): more than one pattern in a single lymph node | |||
When lymph node is only partially involved, lymphoma characteristically grows in the sinuses, which may mimic a metastatic tumor. | |||
The <u>immunophenotype</u> of this disease is detailed below: | |||

CD30+''':''' Positive (universal) - cell membrane and Golgi; large lymphoma cells show strongest staining; smaller cells may show weak, partial to negative staining | |||
