چکیده
Immunoblastic lymphadenopathy (lBL)-like T-cell lymphoma is a distinct peripheral T-cell lymphoma. which closely resembles angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with dysproteinemia (AILD) and/or IBL. but is characterized by focal or sheet-like proliferation of immunoblasts and pale cells of T-cell nature. In this report. 36 patients with IBI-like T-cell lymphoma were analyzed. The disease is clinically characterized by generalized lymph node swelling. hepatosplenomegaly. fever. skin rash. polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia. marked male predominance. predilection for the elderly. and poor prognosis. There was no association with human T-cell leukemia virus type I or human immunodeficiency virus. IBL-like T-cell lymphoma may be divided into two categories (CD4+ type and CD8+

متن کاملCD3-CD4+ lymphoid variant of hypereosinophilic syndrome: nodal and extranodal histopathological and immunophenotypic features of a peripheral indolent clonal T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder.
The CD3(-)CD4(+) lymphoid variant of hypereosinophilic syndrome is characterized by hypereosinophilia and clonal circulating CD3(-)CD4(+) T cells. Peripheral T-cell lymphoma has been described during this disease course, and we observed in our cohort of 23 patients 2 cases of angio-immunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. We focus here on histopathological (n=12 patients) and immunophenotypic (n=15) char...
متن کاملPeripheral T-cell lymphomas--clinicopathologic and immunophenotypic analysis of 25 cases.
The clinicopathologic and immunophenotypic findings of 25 cases of peripheral T-cell lymphoma in Korea were analysed. Seventeen cases (68%) of the 25 T-cell lymphomas presented in the extranodal sites including the nasal mucosa, tonsil, oral cavity, skin and rarely bone, mediastinum and breast. Immunologic studies showed that 12 cases (48%) of the lymphomas were of T-helper phenotype, 5 cases (...

A 68 year old man presented with syncope associated with episodes of sinus arrest. He responded to insertion of a demand pacemaker. During investigation he was noted to have generalized lymphadenopathy and biopsy revealed that he had an immunoblastic lymphoma. Before further assessment could be made, he developed rapid atrial fibrillation, resistant to several anti-arrhythmic agents and died se...
