This retrospective study is to explore the clinicopathologic, immunophenotypic, and molecular genetic features of Waldeyer ring B-cell lymphoma (WR-BCL).Tissue arrays from 65 WR-BCL cases were subjected to pathologic and immunophenotypic detections. Expression of Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER) was detected by in situ hybridization. Interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4), BCL-2, BCL-6, and C-myelocytomatosis viral oncogeneav (MYC) gene abnormalities were investigated using interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization.Among the 65 patients, there were 12 nasopharynx cases, 49 tonsil cases, and 4 tongue root cases. Moreover, there were 49 cases of diffuse large BCL (DLBCL) and 16 cases of follicular lymphoma (FL). More than 60% of the patients had Ann Arbor stage III/IV disease, with infiltrated neighboring organs, invaded spleens, and increased lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels. Tumor cells were positive for multiple myeloma antigen 1 (MUM1), BCL-2, BCL-6, and C-MYC. EBER expression was detected in lymphoma cells of 2 cases. Alteration frequencies of IRF4, BCL-2, BCL-6, and C-MYC were 24.6%, 32.3%, 27.7%, and 30.7%, respectively. Approximately 67.69% cases had stages 0 to II disease, while 32.31% cases had stage III disease. Five-year overall survival rate was 65.12%. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG) score ≥2 was the only adverse factor for overall survival. IRF4/MUM1, C-MYC, and CD10 expressions were related to poor disease prognosis. WR-BCLs were largely dependent on ECOG, LDH, and bone marrow involvement. WR-DLBCL was associated with poor survival outcomes compared with WR-FL.The WR-DLBCLs have distinct clinicopathologic features, with correlations between the IRF4/MUM1, C-MYC and CD10 expressions, ECOG, LDH, bone marrow involvement, and the disease prognosis.
