Abstract
This report involves a 54-year-old female patient diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who developed interstitial pneumonia (IP) during treatment. The patient presented to the ward with enlarged lymph nodes in the neck and was treated with the standard regimen, which included rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin liposomes, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CDOP regimen). After 3 cycles, the treatment was assessed as effective. However, following the 4th cycle, the patient experience shortness of breath after physical activity. A repeat lung computer tomography indicated IP, which completely recovered after receiving "full coverage" treatment. Subsequently, the patient underwent 2 cycles of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin liposomes, vincristine, and prednisone (CDOP), followed by local radiotherapy. Currently, the patient is now being followed up with regular reviews.

Abstract
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a rare lymphoproliferative disease involving B-cells and affecting elderly patients. SMZL plague peripheral blood and bone marrow, spleen. Lymph nodes are generally spared. SMZL is due to a protracted antigen stimulation of B lymphocytes and of microenvironment leading B-cell to polyclonal and then oligoclonal/monoclonal growth, promoting lymphoproliferation. Integration of the NOTCH2 and NFk-B signaling has been recently identified as the primary mechanism of neoplastic proliferation in SMZL. In total 20% of cases carry mutations in NOTCH2. Although SMZL has an indolent course, progression to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma occurs in about 10-15% of patients. Establishing the prognosis is a key step in disease management, depending on both individual risk and patients' health status. This review discusses tailored treatment of SMZL patients. Progression risk factors include nodal and extra-nodal involvement, peripheral lymphocytosis, anemia and thrombocytopenia. Patients with two or more score points have a median survival of <5 years. Watch and wait strategy is appropriate in low-risk and asymptomatic patients, whereas treatment of symptomatic patients ranges from splenectomy to rituximab monotherapy or associated with chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) in indolent lymphoma has been minimally studied. OBJECTIVE This study aims to assess the value of FDG-PET/CT in predicting the prognosis of indolent lymphoma. METHODS We prospectively recruited 42 patients with indolent lymphoma. A total of 2 patients were excluded, and 40 underwent baseline PET/CT and follow-up at various time points. A total of 9 patients were observed only, 7 received 4 doses of rituximab alone, and 24 received chemoimmunotherapy. Metabolic response on follow-up PET/CT was assessed using the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) and Deauville criteria (DC). We aimed to obtain the best SUVmax and DC to predict optimal survival rates, risk stratification, and optimize therapeutic strategies. The mean follow-up from the initial diagnosis was 33.83 months. RESULTS SUVmax <4.35 at interim PET/CT provided the best discrimination, with a progression-free survival (PFS) of 100% and a median survival time of 106.67 months compared with SUVmax ≥4.35 (P=.04), which had a PFS of 43.8% and a median survival time of 50.17 months. This cutoff was also valuable in predicting overall survival at baseline, that is, 100% overall survival with baseline SUVmax <4.35, versus 58.4% for SUVmax ≥4.35 (P=.13). The overall survival of patients with a baseline DC score <3.0 was 100%, with a median overall survival of 106.67 months. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated the utility of PET/CT in indolent lymphomas. SUVmax (<4.35 vs ≥4.35) on interim PET/CT performed best in predicting PFS.

Abstract
Marginal zone lymphomas are indolent diseases. Overall survival rates are very good, but patients tend to relapse and may do so several times. The concept of treatment sequencing is therefore important and necessary to preserve adequate organ function and to avoid excessive toxicity, with the final goal of achieving long survival times. Systemic treatments and chemotherapy are considered to be an option in multiply relapsing disease, in cases that are in an advanced stage at presentation or relapse, and in cases where initial local treatments lack efficacy. Targeted agents and new drugs can provide chemotherapy-free alternatives in heavily pretreated patients.

Abstract
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a rare lymphoma belonging to the marginal zone lymphoproliferative disorders. Usually, SMZL occurs with indolent presentation and, when required, the standard of care is represented by rituximab-based regimens. No direct comparison of different rituximab-based combinations and polychemotherapy regimens has been conducted to date. In a monocentric cohort of 68 SMLZ patients, we showed that rituximab in monotherapy or in combination with bendamustine, compared with rituximab associated with the polychemotherapy cycle cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, vincristine and prednisolone (CHOP), resulted in a higher 5-year progression-free survival (91.3 ± 9% and 75 ± 15.7% vs. 30.8 ± 12.1%, p < 0.001). Platelets at diagnosis <100 ×109/L (p = 0.034, HR = 4.3) and transformation into diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (p = 0.031, HR = 4.3) were associated with a lower overall survival.

Abstract
Marginal zone lymphomas (MZLs) consist of a diverse family of malignancies, which are derived from B-cells. The disease subtypes are recognized extranodal, nodal, and splenic MZLs. The disease characteristics, clinical course, and treatment vary considerably based on the site of involvement. In 2017, the US Food and Drug Administration approved ibrutinib, a first in class Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor that revolutionized the care of chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients; for, the treatment of relapsed/refractory MZL based on pivotal open-label Phase II trial demonstrated an overall response rate of 48%, with a complete response rate of 3%, median progression-free survival of 14.2 months, and median overall survival not yet reached at a median follow-up of 19.4 months. In this review, we aim to summarize the current conundrums in the management of MZL and the evolving role of ibrutinib in the treatment of MZL.

Abstract
Pneumonitis is a rare but severe and potentially fatal adverse effect in chemotherapy of lymphoma. This study is aimed to investigate the incidence of interstitial pneumonitis in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) patients receiving immunochemotherapy with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin and rituximab. Lymphoma patients were retrospectively reviewed, and eligible patients were included in this study. According to the chemotherapy regimens, patients were classified in four groups: combination of vincristine, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (CHOP group) with rituximab (RCHOP group) and combination of vincristine, cyclophosphamide, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin and prednisone (CDOP group) with rituximab (RCDOP group). Incidence and severity of interstitial pneumonitis were compared among the four groups. Among 757 patients reviewed, 207 patients were included in final analysis. Thirteen patients developed chemotherapy-induced interstitial pneumonitis, and the mean cycle of chemotherapy before the onset of pneumonitis was 4. Incidence rates of pneumonitis were 0, 1.8, 17.4, and 21.1% in CHOP, RCHOP, CDOP, and RCDOP groups, respectively (p < 0.001). The mean grades of pneumonitis were 0, 2, 2.5, and 3 in four groups, respectively (p < 0.001). After adjustment of confounders, chemotherapy regimens (OR 3.491, 95% CI 1.527-7.981, p = 0.003) and neutropenia in previous cycles (OR 2.186, 95% CI 1.281-3.731, p = 0.004) were independently associated with the incidence of pneumonitis. Interstitial pneumonitis should be highlighted in NHL patients who received more than 4 cycles of RCDOP chemotherapy regimen, especially in those who had grade 4 neutropenia in the previous cycles of chemotherapy.

Abstract
Approximately 50% of patients with newly diagnosed marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) are of advanced age. For the three subtypes of MZL (extranodal MZL of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue, splenic MZL, nodal MZL), the median age at diagnosis is around 65-70 years. Due to the lack of larger studies in MZL, little is known of the prevalence of comorbidity, polypharmacy, or geriatric syndromes in older patients with MZL. The impact of these concurrent conditions on the tolerability and feasibility of diagnostic or therapeutic procedures used in MZL has not been specifically investigated. However, some extrapolations can be made from other studies in cancer, thereby raising questions about potential benefits of geriatric assessment in older patients with MZL. Core of this article is a review of recommended diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in MZL in light of potential barriers and complications that might be encountered in elderly and geriatric patients with MZL.

Abstract
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a distinct lymphoma entity characterized by an indolent clinical course and prolonged survival. Treatment is not standardized, since there are no prospective randomized trials in large series of SMZL patients. Splenectomy and rituximab represent the most effective treatment strategies used so far. The addition of chemotherapy to rituximab has not further improved the outcome, although this issue requires further investigation. Rituximab monotherapy has been associated with high response rates (∼90%), with approximately half of these responses being complete, even at the molecular level. More importantly, many of these responses are long-lasting, with a reported 7-year progression-free survival (PFS) at the rate of 69%. Maintenance rituximab treatment has been associated with further improvement of the quality of response as well as longer response duration in studies derived from one group of investigators. Based on its high efficacy and the good safety profile, rituximab represent one of the best treatment options for SMZL patients. Moreover, rituximab retains its efficacy in the relapse setting in most cases. Splenectomy is a meaningful alternative to rituximab in patients with bulky splenomegaly and cytopenias, without extensive bone marrow infiltration, who are fit for surgery. However splenectomy cannot completely eradicate the disease and it is also associated with greater morbidity or even mortality compared to rituximab. The choice of one of these two treatment approaches (rituximab or splenectomy) should mainly be based on patient's characteristics and on the disease burden. Novel agents are currently testing in low grade lymphomas including a small number of SMZL patients with promising results.

Abstract
AbstractSplenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a rare B-cell malignancy involving the spleen, bone marrow, and frequently the blood. SMZL lymphomagenesis involves antigen and/or superantigen stimulation and molecular deregulation of genes (NOTCH2 and KLF2) involved in the physiological differentiation of spleen marginal zone B cells. Diagnosis requires either spleen histology or, alternatively, the documentation of a typical cell morphology and immunophenotype on blood cells coupled with the detection of intrasinusoidal infiltration by CD20+ cells in the bone marrow. Among B-cell tumors, deletion of 7q and NOTCH2 mutations are almost specific lesions of SMZL, thus representing promising diagnostic biomarkers of this lymphoma. Although the majority of SMZLs show an indolent course with a median survival of approximately 10 years, nearly 30% of patients experience a poor outcome. No randomized trials are reported for SMZL, and few prospective trials are available. A watch-and-wait approach is advisable for asymptomatic patients. Treatment options for symptomatic patients ranges from splenectomy to rituximab alone or combined with chemotherapy. In some geographic areas, a subset of patients with SMZL associates with hepatitis C virus infection, prompting virus eradication as an effective lymphoma treatment. It would be worthwhile to explore deregulated cellular programs of SMZL as therapeutic targets in the future; improved clinical and biological prognostication will be essential for identifying patients who may benefit from novel approaches.
