Mashup Score: 54Acute promyelocytic leukemia with torque teno mini virus (TTMV)::RARA fusion: an approach to screening and diagnosis - 3 day(s) ago
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with variant RARA translocation is linked to over 15 partner genes. Recent publications encompassing six cases have expanded the spectrum of RARA partners to torque teno mini virus (TTMV). This entity is likely under-recognized due to lack of clinician and pathologist familiarity, inability to detect the fusion using routine testing modalities, and informatic challenges in its recognition within next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. We describe a clinicopathologic approach and provide necessary tools to screen and diagnose APL with TTMV::RARA using existing clinical DNA or RNA-based NGS assays, which led to identification of four cases, all without other known cytogenetic/molecular drivers.

Mashup Score: 925th Edition of the World Health Classification of Tumors of the Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues: B-cell Neoplasms - 3 month(s) ago
We review B-cell lymphomas in the 5th edition of the World Health Organization classification of hematolymphoid tumors (WHO-HEM5). The revised classification is based on a multidisciplinary approach including input from pathologists, clinicians and other experts. The WHO-HEM5 follows a hierarchical structure allowing use of family (class)-level definitions when defining diagnostic criteria are partially met or a complete investigational workup is not possible. Disease types and subtypes have expanded compared with the WHO revised 4th edition (WHO-HEM4R), mainly because of the expansion in genomic knowledge of these diseases.

Mashup Score: 1565TH EDITION OF THE WORLD HEALTH CLASSIFICATION OF TUMORS OF THE HEMATOPOIETIC AND LYMPHOID TISSUES - 3 month(s) ago
In this manuscript, we review myeloid neoplasms in the 5th edition of the World Health Organization classification of hematolymphoid tumors (WHO-HEM5), focusing on changes from the revised 4th edition (WHO-HEM4R). Disease types and subtypes have expanded compared with WHO-HEM4R, mainly because of the expansion in genomic knowledge of these diseases. The revised classification follows a hierarchical structure allowing usage of family (class) level definitions where the defining diagnostic criteria are partially met or a complete investigational workup has not been possible.

Have you ever had a case you were very suspicious was acute promyelocytic leukemia, but all RARA testing was negative? It could be APML with torque teno mini virus (TTMV)::RARA fusion. #hemepath #pathtwitter #hemeonc #hematology https://t.co/haGN3wIF7h
