BACKGROUND:
SMARCA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer (SMARCA4-dNSCLC) is a rare primary lung malignancy. These diseases are not listed separately in the 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of lung neoplasms, but they have special morphological, immunophenotypic and molecular genetic characteristics. This study aims to improve understanding of SMARCA4-dNSCLC by discussing the clinicopathological features, diagonosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.
METHODS:
The clinical and imaging data of 9 cases of SMARCA4-dNSCLC diagnosed in Shanghai Changhai Hospital from January 2020 to March 2022 were collected. The clinicopathological features were analyzed by histological and immunohistochemical staining, and the literature was reviewed.
RESULTS:
The median age of 9 patients was 65 years old. Six men were smokers. The average maximum diameter of tumor was 3.3 cm. Six cases had been metastasized. The imaging showed that it was an infiltrating mass with unclear boundary and 3 cases invaded the pleura. Nine cases were diagnosed as SMARCA4-dNSCLC, which mainly showed three pathological forms including classic lung adenocarcinoma, mucinous adenocarcinoma and poorly differentiated carcinoma. Poorly differentiated tumor cells are epithelioid, syncytial or rhabdomyoid, the cytoplasm was rich, the cytoplasm could be completely transparent to eosinophilic, eosinophilic globules or small abscesses could be seen, showing solid flakes, with more inflammatory cells and flake necrosis in the stroma. Immunohistochemistry showed that SMARCA4 was negative in all cases and eight cases demonstrated cytokeratin 5.2 (CAM5.2) and cytokeratin 7 (CK7) was diffusely strongly positive, p40 was negative, thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) was negative in 6 cases, partially positive in 2 cases and diffusely positive in 1 case.
CONCLUSIONS
SMARCA4-dNSCLC is a rare subtype of lung cancer with complex and diverse pathological morphology. The characteristic of immunohistochemical phenotype can assist in the diagnosis.

Objective:To evaluate the clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of HIV-negative plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) .Methods:Medical records of 15 patients diagnosed with HIV-negative PBL in Changhai Hospital between January 2013 and August 2019 were reviewed, and clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes were analyzed.Results:Median age was 59 years (range: 17-69) . All patients had extranodal involvement. According to the Cotswolds-modified Ann Arbor staging system, 1 (6.7%) , 2 (13.3%) , 3 (20.0%) , and 9 (60.0%) patients were classified as at Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ, respectively. Plasmablast and immunoblast proliferations were typical manifestations of PBL. Immunohistochemical staining showed tumor cells were diffusely positive for plasma cell markers CD38, CD138, and Mum-1, while negative for B cell markers CD20, CD10, PAX-5, and BCL-6. Median Ki-67 index was 80% (70%-90%) . Epstein-Barr virus-encoded RNA (EBER) expression was detected in 3 patients, and 1 of them was positive. All patients received chemotherapy, 80% combined with bortezomib as the first line, and responses were observed in 8 patients (6 complete and 2 partial responses) . Median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 6.8 (95% CI 2.5-11.1) months and 17.9 (95% CI 5.6-30.2) months, the 3-year PFS and OS rates were 21.2% (95% CI 1.4%-56.8%) and 38.5% (95% CI 12.0%-65.0%) , respectively. Conclusion:HIV-negative PBL with high invasiveness is extremely prone to extranodal involvement and most patients were at the advanced stage. Patients receiving an intensive therapy combined with bortezomib and bridged autologous stem cell transplantation may improve long-time survival.

A 54-year-old man was admitted to respiratory department with chief complaints of recurrent cough and dyspnea. Chest imaging showed multiple patchy shadows and interstitial changes. Evidence of infectious diseases was not definite, and antibiotic treatments were not effective. In the meantime, myelodysplasia syndrome was diagnosed with pancytopenia. The pathologic findings of transbronchoscopic lung biopsyshowed chronic inflammatory interstitial changes, suggesting a clinical diagnosis of organizing pneumonia. After glucocorticoids treatment, his condition aggravated. The second percutaneous lung biopsy showed the infiltration of a large number of neutrophils. Therefore, the final diagnosis of myelodysplasia syndrome with Sweet syndrome was made. Then glucocorticoids and supportive treatment were given This case may improve physicians' understanding of myelodysplasia syndrome complicated with Sweet syndrome.

Objective:
To evaluate the clinicopathologic features of Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) , and elucidate the potential pathogenesis by whole exome sequencing (WES) .
Methods:
Clinico-pathological data of 23 RDD patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2018 in Changhai hospital were reviewed, and 9 paraffin-embedded specimens were performed for WES.
Results:
The median age of 23 RDD patients was 47 (10-79) years. Of them, 19 cases had extranodal lesions, 3 had nodal lesions, and 1 had nodal and extranodal lesions coincidently. All patients received surgery for lesion resection. Histiocytosis in lymph node sinuses or in extranodal tissues accompanied by lymphocyte phagocytosis are typical pathological features of RDD. Immunohistochemical staining shows histocytes are positive for S100, CD68 and CDl63, and negative for CD1a. mTOR, KMT2D and NOTCH1 mutations were detected with WES in these cases.
Conclusion
Mutations in mTOR, KMT2D and NOTCH1 genes may be involved in the pathogenesis of RDD, and their clinical significance needs to be further studied.

Objective To investigate the histological features and prognostic factors of angioimmunoblastic T?cell lymphoma (AITL). Methods The pathological data of 62 patients with AITL with complete follow?up information were retrospectively collected and analyzed from Changhai Hospital during September 2012 and September 2017. Histological and immunohistochemical (IHC) examination, in situ hybridization (ISH), and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) gene mutation analysis were done. Subgroup evaluation with histology, IHC, ISH, SNP gene mutation, and association with clinical progression were performed. Results The cohort included 62 cases of AITL, including 46 males and 16 females patients, with a median age of 64 years. Follicular dendritic cells (FDC) area showed significantly expansion (≥30%) in 40 cases; increased plasma cells (≥10%) was seen in 37 cases; B cells were distributed around blood vessels in 37 cases; and increased p53 mutation positive cells (≥40%) were seen in 39 cases; high Ki?67 index (≥40%) was seen in 39 cases; RHOA mutation was seen in 19 cases; TET2 mutation was seen in 9 cases. Overall survival analysis showed these factors were significantly correlated with tumor prognosis (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that CD38 positive cells<10%, Ki?67≥40%, RHOA and TET2 mutations were risk factors associated with overall survival. Conclusions AITL could be divided into two different prognostic groups, low?grade and high?grade, with statistically significance outcome, based on the FDC area expansion, degree of plasma cell proliferation, B cells distribution pattern combined with gene mutations and clinical progression. Low?grade malignant group progresses slowly, and high?grade malignant group is highly invasive.
