Abstract:
IRF4/MUM1-positive lymphoma is a new subgroup of germinal center-derived B-cell lymphoma, predominantly involving the Waldeyer ring (WR) in children. CD5 expression is rare in these lymphomas. We report a 7-year-old Chinese male with B-cell lymphoma. Evaluation of his specimen by morphology, immunohistochemistry, and FISH analysis demonstrated IRF4/MUM1-positive lymphoma with strong and extensive CD5 and CD10 positivity. Despite the lack of t(14;18)(q32;q21) rearrangement, BCL2 protein was expressed. Our report highlights the clinicopathologic features of IFR4/MUM1-positive lymphoma in WR with co-expression of CD5 and CD10, and thereby provides insight into this newly recognized disease entity.

Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
