T-Cell Large Granular Lymphocytic Leukemia: A First Case Report Diagnosed by Flow Cytometry in Vietnam

T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGL leukemia) is a rare, chronic lymphoproliferative disorder in the peripheral blood. This is characterized by peripheral blood and bone marrow (BM) lymphocytic infiltration with clonal large granular lymphocytes (LGLs). The neoplastic cells of this disease display a mature T-cell immunophenotype, with the majority of cases showing a CD4-/CD8+ T-cell, T-cell receptor (TCR) subset immunophenotype versus other permutations of those markers.
