HODGKIN LYMPHOMA
22
Definition (WHO) HL is a type of malignant lymphoma in which Reed-Sternberg cells are present in a “characteristic background” of reactive inflammatory cells of various types, accompanied by fibrosis of a variable degree. Histogenesis Tumors of B cell origin - germinal center or post germinal center B cells
HODGKIN LYMPHOMA
• It was named after Thomas Hodgkin who first described it in 1832.• Dorothy Reed & Carl Sternberg first described the malignant cells of
HL called Reed Sternberg cells. • Cervical lymphadenopathy is the most common head and neck
presentation for Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). • extranodal HL typically associated with generalized disease & a
consequence of local spread from adjacent lymph nodes.

FORMATION OF REED STERNBERG CELLS EBV Infects B cells Which has undergone VDJ recombination somatic hypermutation
Will express LMP1( protein encoded by EBV genome)
upregulates NF kb
Which rescues crippled germinal centre B cells that cannot express Igs from apoptosis

NON-HODGKIN’S LYMPHOMAS (nhls) represent a
heterogeneous group of malignancies that arise from the lymphoid
system which can involve
- both lymph nodes & lymphoid organs
- extranodal organs & tissues
In oral cavity: NHLs of the oral cavity are rare
Account for only 2-3% of all the lymphomas reported.
Oral cavity - large B cell lymphoma – 60% Of cases
PATHOGENESIS:

44
Anatomic location of thirty-one cases of NHL in the oral region arising in soft tissues
45
Oral manifestationsDisease of oral cavity is extranodal. • The disease can be due to Manifestation of disseminated disease • Primary disease of the oral tissues and has not spread to other sites.
(Sole expression of the disease or the initial manifestation of generalized disease).
Oral sites 1. Oral soft tissues 2. Centrally within jaws.
Presentation – oral lesions grow rapidly and then ulcerate. Some cases they can become large, fungating, necrotic, foul smelling masses.
Soft tissue mass Non tender diffuse swellings. Most common buccal vestibule, posterior hard palate or gingiva. swellings have a boggy consistency. Lesion may be erythematous or purplish. May or may not be ulcerated.
46
Lymphomas of bone in oral cavity
• vague pain or discomfort which might be mistaken form
toothache.
• Tooth mobility and pain may develop.
• Parasthesia in the mandible (numb chin syndrome)
• Ulcerated – then bony expansion eventually perforating the
cortex producing a soft tissue swelling.
Systemic symptoms like fever, night sweats, weight loss and
fatigue, pruritis noted.
47
Of a total of 1,467 cases of extranodal NHL studied by Freeman and
co-workers
417 (28percent) - head and neck region.
• Tonsils, 32 %
• Salivary glands 16.5 %
• Oral cavity 9.5 %
• Nasopharynx - 8.8 %
• Thyroid - 8.6 %
• Nose - 7.9 %
48
• characterized by diffuse proliferation of large neoplastic B-lymphoid cells with nuclear size equal to or exceeding normal macrophage nuclei or more than twice the size of a normal lymphocyte (>20 μm).
• 7th decade of life • clinically a rapidly enlarging• often symptomatic mass is typically seenExtraoral sites:mediastinum, GIT, bone marrow, CNS, breast & testes. Oral site:Waldeyer's ring, maxillary alveolus, maxillary vestibule & posterior palate.

Oral PBL is rare
recently described B-cell derived lymphoma
most commonly seen in patients with HIV infection.characterised by a diagnostic triad of predilection for1. Gingivo-buccal complex mucosa, 2. Classical plasmablastic morphology with the lack of
neoplastic plasma cells 3. A limited immunohistochemical panel CD20 negativity LCA (+/), CD138/VS38c diffuse positivity, light chain restriction & high Mib-1(Ki 67) index. Prognosis is usually poor regardless of the site of origin.
PLASMABLASTIC LYMPHOMA
54
Plasmablastic lymphoma
PBL has found a place in the World Health Organization (WHO) 2000 classification as a distinct type of AIDS-related lymphoma and is accepted to be a variant of DLBCL.
55
BURKITT LYMPHOMA• highly aggressive NHL that has the highest cell proliferation rate
among human neoplasms.
• occurs predominantly in the first decades of life• mostly in males• with significant affinity for gnathic bones – 50 – 70% cases• maxilla: mandible – 2:1• Posterior segments of the jaw • Sometimes – 4 quadrant involvementJaw involvement seems to be age related:• 90% - 3 yrs old pt• 25% - pts older than 15 yrs
56
There are three clinical variants of BL:1. Endemic BL - children in Africa and Papua New Guinea as jaw or
orbital masses2. Sporadic BL- no specific age or geographic predilection and
occurs with abdominal or nodal involvement3. HIV associated BL

MANTLE CELL LYMPHOMA• MCL includes small-medium
sized lymphoid cells and accounts for 6–10% of all B-cell lymphomas.
• Common extra-nodal sites - RARE
• Waldeyer's ring, gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow and peripheral blood.
• INTRORAL: 9 cases• Common site: palate….floor of
mouth…Base of tongue
Palatal MCL is mostly seen in elderly people and may be masked with the presence of prosthesis
61
62
Nuclei of small cells have distinct hyperchromatism. Mild nuclear pleomorphism is also evident
Diffuse small cell lymphocytic infiltration is the predominant component on histology.
63
Tumoral cells stained diffusely positive with CD20
Tumoral cells showed nuclear positivity with cyclin D1 staining
64
65
FOLLICULAR LYMPHOMA:
Follicular lymphomas accounts for one third of NHL.
• This is a low to intermediate grade lymphoma • show a follicular architecture • represents the neoplastic counterpart of germinal center B
lymphocytes.
Few case reports – in salivary glands• Among lymphomas originating from salivary glands, the ratio of
follicular lymphoma is very low.
66
A case follicular lymphoma which presented as a salivary gland tumour – submandibular gland
• Destruction of salivary gland architecture.
• No acinar cell/ducts were seen.• The entire mass was infiltrated
by proliferation of lymphocytes which were arranged in sheets..
• neoplastic lymphocytes in a follicular pattern.
67

EXTRANODAL MARGINAL ZONE B-CELL LYMPHOMA• Lymphoma of MALT.
• Indolent lymphoma in mucosal sites and in extranodal tissues
including the gastrointestinal tract, salivary glands, lung, thyroid
gland, and skin.
• Any age-group or gender can be affected
• Associated with Sjogren's syndrome
• female predominance.
• Populated by lymphocytes such as T cells and B cells, as well
as plasma cells and macrophages

MYCOSIS FUNGOIDES –Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma/SEZARY SYNDROME • is a distinctive variant of NHL• Characterized by a malignant proliferation of helper (CD4+)T-lymphocytes & less commonly suppressor (CDS+) T-lymphocytes.• with a predilection to involve the skin.• The mouth is an rare site • only 31 cases of oral CTCL have been reported in English
literature • Oral lesions almost always develop after cutaneouslesions
71
72
Clinical presentation • ulcerated tumors, indurated plaques, papules, leukoplakia-like
lesions, nodules, and multiple erosions • Dysphagia commonly associated Oral lesions appear to be a late manifestation of mycosis fungoides that arise on skin
73
• consist of a dense infiltrate of atypical pleomorphic lymphocytes.
• characteristic Pautrier's microabscesses can be found.
• These features are similar to those seen in cutaneous lesions
74
EXTRANODAL NASAL-TYPE NATURAL KILLER (NK)/T-CELL LYMPHOMA
Represents a rare entityTypically originating in the nasal cavity palate or midfacial region.
Signs and symptoms • non-specific rhinitis and/or sinusitis• nasal obstruction• epistaxis, facial swelling • development of deep necrotic ulceration in the midline of the
palate, causing an oronasal defect. • Differential diagnosis: fungal infections, Wegener’s
granulomatosis, tertiary syphilis, other non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas & malignant epithelial midline tumors.

Ann Arbor Staging System• Stage I: Single lymph node region (I) or single extralymphatic organ or
site (IE)
• Stage II: > 2 lymph node regions on same side of diaphragm (II) or with limited, contiguous extra lymphatic tissue involvement (IIE)
• Stage III: both sides of diaphragm involved, may include spleen (IIIS) or local tissue involvement (IIIE)
• Stage IV: multiple/disseminated foci involved with > 1 extralymphatic organs (i.e. bone marrow)
(A) or (B) designates absence/presence of “B” symptoms*(E) Localized, solitary involvement of extralymphatic tissue, excluding liver
and bone marrow
81
Stage I Stage II Stage III Stage IV
Staging of lymphoma
A: absence of B symptomsB: fever, night sweats, weight loss
DIAGNOSIS
• Blood test
• Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH)
• Biopsy
• Bone Marrow Biopsy
• CT, and PET scans
• Immunohistochemistry
• Flow Cytometry
• Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization (FISH): to detect changes in specific
chromosomes.
• Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR): to detect specific DNA sequences
that occur in some cancers
• DNA Microarray
84
Oral lymphoma often is a component of a disseminated disease process that may involve regional nodes as well. Other times, it may represent a primary extranodal disease confined to oral cavity or jaws, which is very rare
