Additional evidence that "plasmacytoid T-cell lymphoma" associated with chronic myeloproliferative disorders is of macrophage/monocyte origin.

Abstract excerpt

Plasmacytoid T-cell lymphoma (PTL) is a rare lymphoma with unique morphologic, immunologic, and clinical features. Thus far, only three cases have been reported, each terminating in myeloid leukemia. The macrophage/monocyte rather than T-cell origin of "plasmacytoid T-cells" in reactive lymph nodes has been suggested in the past, but there has been no extensive investigation to demonstrate whether the PTLs are...
