Invasive angiomyxoma(AAM) is characterized by unclear boundaries, non enveloped glial growth, high recurrence rate, and belongs to a benign tumor, but it is invasive and grows slowly. A patient with recurrent left vestibular invasive angiomyxoma was admitted to the Otorhinolaryngology ward of Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affiliated with Capital Medical University. The patient underwent two repeated surgeries and underwent a combined internal and external nasal approach for the removal of the nasal vestibular angiomyxoma. The patient recovered well after the surgery and has not recurred since follow-up.

In light of the lack of reliable molecular markers for odontogenic myxoma (OM), the detection of copy number variation (CNV) may present a more objective method for assessing ambiguous cases. In this study, we employed multiregional microdissection sequencing to integrate morphological features with genomic profiling. This allowed us to reveal the CNV profiles of OM and compare them with dental papilla (DP), dental follicle (DF), and odontogenic fibroma (OF) tissues. We identified a distinct and robustly consistent CNV pattern in 93.75% (30/32) of OM cases, characterized by CNV gain events in chromosomes 4, 5, 8, 10, 12, 16, 17, 20, and 21. This pattern significantly differed from the CNV patterns observed in DP, DF, and OF. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis indicated potential links between this CNV patterns and the calcium signaling pathway and salivary secretion, while Gene Ontology (GO) term analysis implicated CNV patterns in tumor adhesion, tooth development, and cell proliferation. Comprehensive CNV analysis accurately identified a case that was initially disputable between OF and OM as OM. Our findings provide a reliable diagnostic clue and fresh insights into the molecular biological mechanism underlying OM.

Objective: To investigate the clinical, pathological and immunophenotypic features, molecular biology and prognosis of fibrin-associated large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL-FA) in various sites. Methods: Six cases of LBCL-FA diagnosed from April 2016 to November 2021 at the Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China and the First Affiliated Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou, China were collected. The cases were divided into atrial myxoma and cyst-related groups. Clinical characteristics, pathological morphology, immunophenotype, Epstein Barr virus infection status, B-cell gene rearrangement and fluorescence in situ hybridization of MYC, bcl-2, bcl-6 were summarized. Results: The patients' mean age was 60 years. All of them were male. Three cases occurred in atrial myxoma background, while the others were in cyst-related background, including adrenal gland, abdominal cavity and subdura. All cases showed tumor cells located in pink fibrin clot. However, three cyst-related cases showed the cyst wall with obviously fibrosis and inflammatory cells. All cases tested were non germinal center B cell origin, positive for PD-L1, EBER and EBNA2, and were negative for MYC, bcl-2 and bcl-6 rearrangements, except one case with MYC, bcl-2 and bcl-6 amplification. All of the 5 cases showed monoclonal rearrangement of the Ig gene using PCR based analysis. The patients had detailed follow-ups of 9-120 months, were treated surgically without radiotherapy or chemotherapy, and had long-term disease-free survivals. Conclusions: LBCL-FA is a group of rare diseases occurring in various sites, with predilection in the context of atrial myxoma and cyst-related lesions. Cyst-related lesions with obvious chronic inflammatory background show more scarcity of lymphoid cells and obvious degeneration, which are easy to be missed or misdiagnosed. LBCL-FA overall has a good prognosis with the potential for cure by surgery alone and postoperative chemotherapy may not be necessary.
