title: Particular ultrastructural aspects in some splenectomized cases of hairy cell leukemia.
abstract: Some peculiar ultrastructural aspects of hairy cells obtained from the examination with SEM and TEM are presented. Images of erythrocyte rosette-formation around hairy cells in spleen as well as some additional data on the biogenesis of ribosome-lamellae complexes are reported. Some considerations on the origin of hairy cells are added.
