[Angiocentric T-cell lymphoma of the lung].
Angiocentric T-cell lymphoma of the lung. The case history of a patient with primary angiocentric T-cell lymphoma of the lung having an unusually long survival period (> 10 years) is presented. Attention is paid to the possibilities of differential diagnosis that should be taken into account in the analysis of certain lymphocytic infiltrates of the lung. In accordance with relevant data of the literature, this case shows that pleiomorphic small cell T-lymphomas may have a protracted course, and the disease free periods repeatedly achieved in this patient by irradiation and chemotherapy are thought to be noticeable. Authors refer to some recent findings which may give new insights in the pathobiology of extranodal T-cell lymphomas, and result in recognition of new disease entities.
