Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) shares immunophenotypic and karyotypic features with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. The latter comprises two distinct entities with prognosis dependent upon immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene mutational status and the presence of 11q deletion. We evaluated the relevance of IgH gene mutational status, IgV gene family usage and presence of 11q deletion in a series of 42 histologically reviewed classical MCL cases to determine the prognostic impact. VH3 was the most common VH family, with VH3-21 being the most frequent individual VH gene. Approximately 30% of the cases had a IgH somatic mutation rate higher than 2%, but was only higher than 4% in <10% of cases. Half of the cases had deletion of chromosome 11q21-telomere (11q21->ter), with two minimal deleted regions, at 11q22.2 and 11q23.2. There was no association between 11q loss and IgH gene somatic mutation rate; the use of VH3-21 gene could be associated with a better prognosis.
