Plasmacytoid T-cells (PTCs) are a histologically recognized component of some reactive nodes. To the best of the authors' knowledge, plasmacytoid T-cells have never been recognized as a distinct cell population in a reactive lymph node using cell suspension flow cytometric studies. The authors here report a case of reactive lymph node hyperplasia in which prominent aggregates of PTCs were present and a distinct...
