An unusual case of T‐cell lymphoproliferative disorder

Abstract: A 54-year-old woman with epigastric pain had leukocytosis of 73,000/microliter consisting mainly of atypical lymphoid cells with convoluted and cleaved nuclei resembling Sézary cells; the bone marrow aspirate was nondiagnostic. Skin biopsy was unremarkable. The patient also had hypercalcemia and hemolysis with a positive direct Coombs' test, both of short duration. The arterial oxygen tension was decreased, but there was no demonstrable lung pathology. The patient subsequently developed rapidly enlarging lymph… Show more

“…Since the advent of recent advances in im munology, current approaches to diagnosis of lympho proliférative diseases are multiparametric. Surface markers and immunocytochemistry in addition to morphologic features are utilized [14,18,21,25,30,32,33]. Elucidation of precise cell definition by mul tiple investigative methods promotes greater accuracy in identification of cell type and prognosis.…”
