title: Ribosome lamella complex in neoplastic cells of a Sézary's syndrome.
abstract: The first case of ribosome lamella complex (RLC) is reported in abnormal cells of a Sézary's syndrome, a T cell malignancy. Until now this ultrastructural cytoplasmic inclusion has usually been described in hairy cell leukaemia and other lymphoproliferative syndromes of B cell origin. Since RLC are also observed in abnormal lymphoid T cells, in non lymphoid cells, and moreover in non haematopoietic cells, they lack diagnostic specificity.
