The smudge cells are well studied as a prognostic factor for chronic lymphocytic leukemia, but it is also found in viral infections. We experienced a case of abnormal hyperleukocytosis (WBC 41,600/mm3) associated with infectious mononucleosis (IM). The smudge cells were observed in peripheral blood smears, and were counted by mistake for the normal lymphocytes by the automatic blood count meter.
涂抹细胞作为慢性淋巴细胞白血病的一个预后因素已得到充分研究,但在病毒感染中也有发现。我们遇到一例与传染性单核细胞增多症(IM)相关的异常白细胞增多症(白细胞计数41,600/mm³)。在外周血涂片上观察到了涂抹细胞,自动血细胞计数仪将其误计为正常淋巴细胞。
