Abstract

A middle aged Northern European man presented with a submental lymph node and was found on imaging to have generalized lymphadenopathy. There was bone marrow infiltration by small apparently lymphoid cells, many with cytoplasmic tails; these cells were CD56⁺ and weakly CD4⁺. A provisional diagnosis was confirmed by further immunophenotyping.
