Primary oral diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is rare and the differential diagnosis is difficult due to its low incidence and nonspecific symptoms, which resemble those of common oral diseases in the initial clinical setting. We aimed to discuss the value of making an accurate diagnosis using liquid-based cytology (LBC) and cell block (CB) for not only the morphological interpretation but also cytohistological assessment of oral DLBCL. LBC and CBs made from oral brushing materials were prepared on the first medical examination and a morphological analysis and immunohistochemical analysis of specific biomarkers were performed. The analysis of LBC preparations showed the presence of large-size lymphocytes with large irregular nuclei and prominent nucleoli, suggesting the existence of large B-cell lymphoma. A more detailed histological subclassification of the CB specimen was performed, which was classified as the activated B-cell (ABC) phenotype of DLBCL, by confirming the immunohistochemical expression of CD10−/ B-cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6)+/ multiple myeloma oncogene 1(MUM1)+, which is a significant risk factor in DLBCL. Our findings suggest that the combination of LBC and CB is a useful and informative tool for making an accurate molecular diagnosis of oral DLBCL in cases in which lymphomas are clinically suspected. |
