Rearrangement of KMT2A Characterizes a Subset of Pediatric Parotid Mucoepidermoid Carcinomas Arising Metachronous to Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Original language description
Introduction: Metachronous mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MMEC) may occur in association with childhood leukemias and lymphomas. We compared molecular abnormalities of MMEC in patients with ALL with the abnormalities found in primary mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MECs) in pediatric cases and young adults. Materials and methods: Immunohistochemical stains for p63 and SOX10, molecular alterations in MAML2 and KMT2A genes detected by FISH and/or next-generation sequencing were studied in 12 pediatric MMECs secondary to ALL and six primary MECs in pediatric patients and young adults. Follow-up information of patients in both groups was obtained. Results: KMT2A rearrangements were detected in pediatric MMECs, and they were associated with remarkable histomorphological changes, including deposits of abundant stromal collagen and intratumoral lymphoid proliferations. No KMT2A rearrangements were found in primary MECs. The prognosis of MMEC in patients with ALL, especially in KMT2A-rearranged cases, was worse than in primary MECs. Kruskal-Wallis test showed a statistically significant difference in overall survival between KMT2A-rearranged MMECs and KMT2A-intact MMECs in cases with ALL (p = 0.027). Conclusion: KMT2A-rearranged MMECs in ALL patients may have inherently more aggressive behavior, even when the histomorphology of MMEC suggests a low-grade malignancy.
