B cell lymphoma mimicking hepatitis with fibrosis. A. Apparent inflamed fibrous tract with lobular inflammatory collections in adjacent liver. B. Apparent inflamed fibrous band between two relatively hepatocyte regions. C. Apparent piecemeal necrosis with bile ductular proliferation. D. Apparent portal inflammation with unaffected interlobular bile duct. E. Apparent lobular inflammation with collections a bit too large for usual lobular inflammation.  F. Proof is at high power. All cells are similar to macrophages but are too closely crowded to be macrophages. The monomorphism (one type of cell) should inspire immunohistochemical stains, which showed the patient had a B cell lymphoma.

Malignant B cell lymphoma, NOS, in a 63 year old man’s liver. No other specimens were available for further classification. A. Tumor expands a triad and occupies parenchymal regions. B. Bounding a bile duct, modestly sized round to reniform lymphoid cells, many without nucleoli, accompany small round lymphocytes. Some of the larger cells have clefts (arrows). C. CD3 stain shows many of the lymphoid cells are intercalated reactive T cells. D. Ki67 shows less than half the tumor cells, mostly the larger ones, are in proliferative phase, arguing against the notion of a high grade B cell lymphoma. E. CD79A establishes B cell phenotype (CD20 was also positive). F. That the tumor cells are BCL2 positive evinces B cell neoplasia. The cells were CD10, BCL6, and cyclin D1 negative, militating against mantle cell lymphoma and CLL, with no follicular origin identified.

High grade B cell lymphoma involving liver in a 77 year old woman. A. A band of cancer abuts fibrotic liver with steatosis. B. Cancer cells show primitive, round to ovoid, variably sized, dark nucleoli and an aberrant mitoses. Cytoplasm is scant. C. Cancer cells are CD79a positive. D. Most cancer cell nuclei were positive for Ki-67, overall about 80%. E. A minority of cancer cells are CD10 positive.
