Abstract

A 20-year-old man with a history of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) underwent excisional biopsy of a femoral lymph node for evaluation of lymphadenopathy. Histologic examination showed paracortical expansion by a lymphohistiocytic infiltrate, and reactive follicles with regressive changes. The interfollicular histiocytes had clumped nuclei and showed occasional emperipolesis. Special stains were negative for infectious organisms. The microscopic findings in this lymph node are related to the underlying WAS. Emperipolesis has previously been reported in lymph nodes of patients with WAS. Recognition of reactive microscopic features in lymph nodes of these patients is important, as they are at increased risk for lymphoproliferative disorders.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Hematopathology aims at providing pathologists with a special interest in hematopathology with all the information needed to perform modern pathology in evaluating lymphoid tissues and bone marrow. To this end the journal publishes reviews, editorials, comments, original papers, guidelines and protocols, papers on ancillary techniques, and occasional case reports in the fields of the pathology, molecular biology, and clinical features of diseases of the hematopoietic system. The journal is the unique reference point for all pathologists with an interest in hematopathology. Molecular biologists involved in the expanding field of molecular diagnostics and research on lymphomas and leukemia benefit from the journal, too. Furthermore, the journal is of major interest for hematologists dealing with patients suffering from lymphomas, leukemias, and other diseases. The journal is unique in its true international character. Especially in the field of hematopathology it is clear that there are huge geographical variations in incidence of diseases. This is not only locally relevant, but due to globalization, relevant for all those involved in the management of patients.
