Abstract:

 


Aim: Lymphomas are the second most common malignant disease after leukemia
and brain tumors in developing
contries. Ebstein-Barr virus has a
initiator role in the development of lymphoma,
but it is known that socioeconomic conditions, genetic features and the immune
supressive factors is also important. We aimed to explore the histopathologic
subtypes of pediatric lymphomas and their relation with Ebstein-Barr virüs infection
in our region.


Material
and Methods: In this
retrospective study, 87 children
including 36 cases with hodgkin lymphoma and 51 cases with non-hodgkin lymphoma
were included in the study. The pathologic slides were used to investigate immunohistochemical staining with Ebstein-Barr
virüs latent membrane protein-1 and in-situ hybridization.



Results: The most common histopathological subtype in hodgkin lymphoma cases  were mixed cellular classical Hodgkin lymphoma
(55.6%) followed by nodular sclerosis classical hodgkin lymphoma (16.6%). The most common histopathological subtype in non-Hodgkin
lymphoma cases was Burkitt lymphoma
(51.0%) followed by precursor T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (13.7%). Ebstein-Barr
virüs latent membrane protein-1 was positive in 29 Hodgkin lymphoma. All non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases were
stained negative with ımmunohistochemical. The positive staining rate of  Hodgkin lymphoma cases with  in-situ hybridization
was 83.3% and this rate was
27.5% in non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases. The differences between groups for both
staining methods were statistically significant (p<0.001)






























Conclusion: The results of this study show that the distribution of histopatholojik
subtypes of pediatric lymphomas similar to in developing countries. And we have
observed that in-situ hybridization is
more specific than immunohistochemistry because Ebstein-Barr virus positivity is more detected in in-situ hybridization.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı bölgemizdeki pediatrik lenfomaların histopatolojik alt tiplerinin oranını ve bunların Ebstein-Barr virüs enfeksiyonu ile olan ilişkisini incelemektir.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Hodgkin lenfoma tanısı alan 36 olgu ve non-hodgkin lenfoma tanısı alan 51 olgu retrospektif arşiv taraması yapılarak çalışmaya dahil edildi. Olgulara immünohistokimyasal olarak Ebstein-Barr virüs latent membran proteini-1 ve in-situ hibridizasyon uygulandı.

Bulgular: Hodgkin lenfoma olgularında; en sık rastlanan histopatolojik alt tipler sırası ile mikst sellüler klasik hodgkin lenfoma (%55,6) idi. Non-Hodgkin lenfoma olgularında en sık rastlanan histopatolojik alt tip Burkitt lenfoma (%51) idi.  Ebstein-Barr virüs latent membran proteini-1 ile 29 hodgkin lenfoma olgusunda pozitif iken non-hodgkin lenfoma olgularında immünohistokimya ile pozitif boyanma saptanmadı. Hodgkin lenfoma olgularında in situ hibridizasyon ile boyanma oranı % 83.,3 iken non-Hodgkin lenfoma olgularında bu oran % 27.5 idi.. Her iki boyama yöntemi için gruplar arasındaki fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlıydı.

Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, olgularımızın histopatolojik dağılımlarının gelişmekte olan ülkelerdeki pediatrik lenfoma olguları ile benzer olduğunu göstermektedir. Aynı zamanda in situ hibridizasyon’da Ebstein-Barr virüs pozitifliği daha fazla olması nedeniyle in situ hibridizasyonun ebstein barr virüs tespitinde  immünohistokimyadan daha spesifik olduğunu düşünmekteyiz.
