Mantle cell lymphoma with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (motor neuron disease)
We describe a previously unreported case of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) associated to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in a 63-year-old woman with a 1-year history of weakness of arm and leg muscles. The both molecular-genetic and flow cytometry analysis of lymphocytes of peripheral blood (PB) demonstrated leukemic phase of MCL.
