[Abnormal chromatin clumping syndrome during treatment with mycophenolate mofetil].
We describe an abnormal chromatin clumping phenomenon (ACC) with nuclear loss of segmentation on circulating neutrophils in three patients receiving mycophenolate mofetil (Cellcept). It is worth being aware of this rare adverse event because of its unknown origin and of its possible clinical consequences.
