A 42-year-old man, born in Chiba prefecture, was admitted to our hospital because of multiple nodular shadows on chest X-ray film and an elevated titer of human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) antibody. The pulmonary lesion was diagnosed as T-cell lymphoma by open lung biopsy. There has been only one previous report of T-cell lymphoma showing multiple nodular shadows on chest X-ray. The elevated titer of HTLV-I antibody strongly suggested that the present case was one of adult T-cell lymphoma.
一名42岁男性,出生于千叶县,因胸部X光片上出现多个结节状阴影以及人类嗜T淋巴细胞病毒I型(HTLV-I)抗体滴度升高而入住我院。通过开胸肺活检,肺部病变被诊断为T细胞淋巴瘤。此前仅有一份关于T细胞淋巴瘤在胸部X光上显示多个结节状阴影的报告。HTLV-I抗体滴度升高强烈提示本病例为成人T细胞淋巴瘤之一。
