Abstract
Rearrangements involving KMT2A are common in de novo and therapy-related acute myeloid and lymphoblastic leukemias. There is a diverse recombinome associated with KMT2A involving at least 135 partner genes, with more being discovered due to advances in molecular genetic diagnostics. KMT2A-ARHGEF12 fusion has only rarely been reported, in five cases of acute leukemia and a single case of high-grade B-cell lymphoma. We present a 12-year-old boy with high-grade B-cell lymphoma and KMT2A-ARHGEF12 fusion, whose clinical, morphologic, phenotypic and genotypic profile is strikingly similar to the other case of high grade B cell lymphoma, both otherwise perfectly mimicking Burkitt lymphoma.
