We reported in this article two patients with large granular lymphocytic lymphoma (abbreviated as LGL lymphoma). One was the patient with LGL leukemia/lymphoma (patient 1) and other was the patient with NK-LGL lymphoma (patient 2). Because the gene of TCR delta was rearranged in the patient 1, the clonality of the LGL leukemia/lymphoma was confirmed. However, it is not determined yet whether the lineage of tumor cells is T cells or NK cells. The cytochemical features of the lymphoma cells of the patient 2 were studied. It was found that NK cell-derived lymphoma cells of the patient were positively stained with these two monoclonal antibodies that are reactive with T cell; one is anti-CD45RO (UCHL-1) and other is anti-CD3. Judging from the result, malignant NK-LGL cells in some patients are cytoplasmic CD3+ and UCHl-1+. It is emphasized that May-Grünwald-Giemsa stain of biopsied specimen of the lymphoma is required for making the diagnosis of LGL lymphoma.
