Abstract excerpt
The less common chronic B-cell lymphomas include hairy cell leukemia, hairy cell leukemia variant and splenic lymphoma with villous lymphocytes. These disease entities can sometimes cause a diagnostic dilemma; however, immunophenotypic markers have been identified as disease specific and scoring systems have been proposed to assist the process. This study reports a case of a chronic B-cell lymphoma with long...
