Hairy cell leukemia. Electron microscopic observations of two cases.
Electron microscopic studies were done on two cases of hairy cell leukemia. Although scanning electron microscopy did reveal typical features of hairy cells, in most abnormal cells, transmission electron microscopy clearly showed that there are two distinct types of cell populations. These two types of leukemic cells with respective lymphoid and non-lymphoid characteristics warrant further investigation.
