Megalosplenia as an initial manifestation of multiple myeloma with a novel CYLD gene mutation : A case report and literature review
Copyright © 2024 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc..
INTRODUCTION: Megalosplenia in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) is extremely rare, posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its unusual location and clinical manifestations and lack of optimal therapeutic strategies.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 65-year-old female who was previously healthy presented with a history of ecchymosis on her right leg accompanied by progressive fatigue for 2 weeks. She was admitted to our center in July 2019 due to thrombocytopenia. The patient presented with megalosplenia, anemia, monoclonal protein (λ-light chain type) in the serum and urine, and 45.6% malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow. Splenectomy was performed due to persistent splenomegaly after 3 cycles of the bortezomib plus dexamethasone regimen, and immunohistochemistry results indicated λ-plasmacytoma of the spleen. The same cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities, including t(14;16), 14q32 amplification, 16q32 amplification, 20q12 amplification, and a novel CYLD gene mutation, were identified using fluorescence in situ hybridization and next-generation sequencing in both bone marrow and spleen samples. Therefore, a diagnosis of MM (λ-light chain type, DS III, ISS III, R-ISS III, high-risk) with spleen infiltration was proposed. The patient did not achieve remission after induction treatment with bortezomib plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone or salvage therapy with daratumumab plus ixazomib and dexamethasone. However, she ultimately did achieve very good partial remission with a regimen of bendamustine plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone. Unfortunately, she died of pneumonia associated with chemotherapy.
CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, only 8 cases of spleen plasmacytoma at MM diagnosis have been described previously. Extramedullary myeloma patients with spleen involvement at diagnosis are younger and that the condition is usually accompanied by splenic rupture with aggressive clinical features and poor prognosis. Further studies are needed to explore pathogenesis and effective therapies to prolong the survival of such patients.
