It is possible that the initial thyroid neoplasm was a well- differentiated follicular carcinoma which was microscopically indistinguishable from a benign adenoma. Realizing this pathologic pitfall in thyroid diagnosis, the need for meticulous examination of the pa...
متن کاملS100-positive, T-cell chronic lymphoproliferative disease: an aggressive disorder of an uncommon T-cell subset.
S100-positive T lymphocytes account for less than 3% of peripheral blood T cells. Rare cases of S100-positive T-cell lymphoma have been previously described. We report four such cases of S100-positive T-cell chronic lymphoproliferative disease. In all cases, hepatosplenomegaly was observed, without prominent lymphadenopathy. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement by the leukemic cells was sug...
متن کاملA chronic B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder.
A 65-year-old male patient was admitted who had been suffering for some months from weakness and sensory alterations of the legs, with difficulty in walking. At physical examination pallor, hepatomegaly and splenomegaly (6 cm below the costal margin) were found; there was no lymphadenopathy. Laboratory findings showed anemia (Hb 8.3 g/dL), leucocytosis (WBC 42.3u10/L), normal platelet count (23...
