A cervical lymph node removed at biopsy showed the features of immunoblastic lymphadenopathy with the presence of heavy chain classes IgG, IgM, and IgA and both kappa and lambda light chain ty...
متن کاملLymphocyte subpopulations in rheumatoid synovial tissue.
Synovial tissue obtained at synovectomy of the knee joint in 21 patients with rheumatoid arthritis contained a significantly lower proportion of T lymphocytes as measured by spontaneous rosette formation with nonsensitized sheep red blood cells than did synovial fluid or blood from the same patients. There was on concomitant increase in synovial tissue lymphocytes with B-cell markers such as su...
متن کاملPulmonary involvement in angio-immunoblastic lymphadenopathy.
Two patients are described who complained of dyspnoea and systemic symptoms. They were found to have angio-immunoblastic lymphadenopathy with extensive pulmonary involvement. In both cases, high dose corticosteroid therapy led to relief of symptoms and clearing of the diffuse radiographic shadowing seen in both lung fields.
متن کاملPolyarthritis and angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy.
Angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy (AILD) is a lymphoproliferative disorder with well established clinical and histological features, one of the clinical manifestations being a peripheral polyarthritis. A case of AILD with a symmetrical non-erosive peripheral polyarthritis is described, including the findings in the synovial fluid and histology of the synovium. There was a marked reduction in t...
