Coexistence of Trisomy 8 and 13 in a Newly Diagnosed Patient With Diffuse Large B Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and Acute Myeloid Leukemia Secondary to Primary Myelofibrosis.

Concomitant diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and acute myeloid leukemia secondary to chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) is rarely reported. Patients with MPNs may have a second neoplasm, and the risk of lymphoid line neoplasms is 2.5-3.5 times for lymphoid line neoplasms. The explanation for this association is the genetic instability of hematopoietic progenitors in MPNs. An 80-year-old Caucasian man, with many comorbidities, presents for physical asthenia, sweating. The right inguinal adenopathy was known one month before the examination. The patient was diagnosed concomitantly with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) secondary to primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and presented trisomy 8, trisomy 13, and triple-negative PMF status. The patient initially received two well-tolerated R mini CHOP series. This type of treatment was selected to treat DLBCL for one unfit patient for intensive chemotherapy due to his age and comorbidities. R mini CHOP administration was followed by severe aplasia that lasted approximately two weeks followed by severe thrombocytosis that reached 4000 x109/L, and Thromboreductin recommendation was mandatory. The result of the treatment was a partial response but with severe adverse events like neutropenia G4, due to the delay of the treatment the patient lost the response. It was mandatory to select another treatment line and the chosen was venetoclax; it was selected for the simultaneous treatment of DLBCL and the underlying AML. It was obtained a significant reduction in the size of the inguinal lymph node block in two weeks of treatment. Severe neutropenia was diagnosed and complicated with sepsis. The evolution is unfavorable with the installation of multiple organ dysfunction. The presence of a complex karyotype (trisomy 8, trisomy 13) in a patient with myeloid metaplasia with triple-negative PMF was associated with blast transformation and severe thrombocytosis. The patient was diagnosed concomitantly with DLBCL, making the therapeutic decision difficult. Venetoclax has been shown to be useful in the treatment of DLBCL but has been associated with severe neutropenia, which has led to infectious complications.
