Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma associated with t(14;19)(q32;q13) translocation.

We report a 59-year-old man with intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) associated with hemophagocytic syndrome, disseminated intravascular coagulopathy, and lung involvement. G-banding analysis of the metaphase spreads obtained from the bone marrow showed that the lymphoma cells were near-tetraploid and included two homologues of the 14q+ chromosome. Spectral karyotyping revealed that complex translocations occurred among chromosomes 3, 12, 14, and 19, and additional materials of 14q+ were from chromosome 19 with the breakpoint at 14q32 and 19q13. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing t(14;19)(q32;q13) in IVLBCL.
