Gray zone lymphoma is an aggressive disease for which appropriate management is still debated. We report a 15-year-old girl with a cervical mass, an enlarged ipsilateral tonsil, and anemia. Both sites showed hypermetabolism on F18-FG positron emission tomography/CT. Surgical resection was diagnostic of Epstein-Barr virus-negative gray zone lymphoma cervical and tonsillar involvement. No abnormality was found in cytogenetic analysis on tumor cells. However, exome sequencing in peripheral blood DNA revealed a germline mutation in TP53. Complete response was achieved after surgery and 6 cycles of rituximab with dose-adjusted etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin regimen.
