We describe two childhood cases of a T-cell malignancy indistinguishable from nonendemic, idiopathic adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. The cases illustrate the heterogeneity of nonendemic, idiopathic ATLL, including the presence of mediastinal masses and more heterogeneous immunologic markers than endemic cases, and represent the two youngest cases of ATLL yet described. The differential diagnosis of nonendemic, idiopathic ATLL is discussed.
我们描述了两例儿童期的T细胞恶性肿瘤，它们与非地方性、特发性成人T细胞白血病/淋巴瘤难以区分。这些病例说明了非地方性、特发性成人T细胞白血病/淋巴瘤的异质性，包括纵隔肿块的存在以及比地方性病例更具异质性的免疫标志物，并且代表了迄今为止所描述的最年轻的两例成人T细胞白血病/淋巴瘤病例。文中还讨论了非地方性、特发性成人T细胞白血病/淋巴瘤的鉴别诊断。
