title: [Hairy cell leukemia expressing SIgM+, SIgG-, CD11b+ and CD21+ and accompanying lymphadenopathy without splenomegaly].
abstract: Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) expressing both surface monocytoid antigen and IgM (kappa) was reported. A 62-year-old male was admitted to our hospital in September 21, 1989 because of leukocytosis. Physical examinations showed axillary and inguinal lymphadenopathy but no hepato-splenomegaly. The leukocyte count was 12,600/microliters with 73% of abnormal cells like large lymphocytes which had abundant cytoplasm and hairy appearance under phase microscopy. They had ruffles with microvilli under electron microscope. Bone marrow puncture showed normocellular marrow with 71.2% of abnormal cells similar to the peripheral blood. Surface markers were CD11b+, CD21+, HLA-DR+, Tac- and IgM (kappa). They were positive for ++acid phosphatase staining, but negative for peroxidase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining. He was diagnosed as Japanese type HCL. HCL expressing both surface monocytoid antigen and IgM is rare and the clinical features of our case are compared with those reported in Japan.
