Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that transforms into a more aggressive lymphoma has been termed Richter syndrome (RS). CLL with T-cell neoplasia is rarely reported; those with ALK anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) are also exceedingly rarely reported. A 63-year-old woman from the south of China presented with generalized lymphadenectasis and fever; she already had a prior diagnosis of CLL 9 years ago. As per her current diagnosis, it was CLL with ALK ALCL. The two-lymph node and bone marrow biopsies presented two types of cellular groups: ) left cervical lymph node biopsy suggested CLL (Ki67: 10%), along with bone marrow biopsy exhibited enhancement of the small lymphocytes (30%) with scant cytoplasm, round or irregular cell nuclei, and massive amounts of chromatin. Large cells (< 1%) that expressed CD30 and ALK were visible; The results of immunohistochemistry were as follows: CD20 (weak positive); PAX5 (positive); CD23 and CD5 (weak positive); and CD3, CD10, and CyclinD1 (negative); ) left supraclavicular lymph node biopsy suggested ALK ALCL (Ki67: 70%). The final diagnosis was CLL with ALCL. The mechanisms of this condition are not fully understood, which might be associated with chronic stimulation of T cells by CLL cells along with immune dysfunction.
转化为侵袭性更强的淋巴瘤的慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)被称为里氏综合征(RS)。伴有T细胞肿瘤形成的CLL鲜有报道;伴有间变性淋巴瘤激酶(ALK)间变性大细胞淋巴瘤(ALCL)的病例更是极为罕见。一名来自中国南方的63岁女性出现全身淋巴结肿大和发热;9年前她曾被诊断为CLL。根据其目前的诊断,为伴有ALK-ALCL的CLL。两次淋巴结和骨髓活检呈现出两种细胞群:)左侧颈部淋巴结活检提示为CLL(Ki67:10%),同时骨髓活检显示小淋巴细胞增多(30%),其细胞质稀少,细胞核呈圆形或不规则形,且有大量染色质。可见表达CD30和ALK的大细胞(<1%);免疫组化结果如下:CD20(弱阳性);PAX5(阳性);CD23和CD5(弱阳性);以及CD3、CD10和细胞周期蛋白D1(阴性);)左侧锁骨上淋巴结活检提示为ALK-ALCL(Ki67:70%)。最终诊断为伴有ALCL的CLL。这种情况的机制尚未完全明确,可能与CLL细胞对T细胞的慢性刺激以及免疫功能障碍有关。
