Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with aberrant expression of the T-cell antigens CD2 and CD7. Applied immunohistochemistry & molecular morphology Sangle, N. A., Agarwal, A. M., Smock, K. J., Leavitt, M. O., Warnke, R., Bahler, D., Perkins, S. L. 2011; 19 (6): 579-583

Abstract

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Although, aberrant expression of a single T-cell-associated antigen (exclusive of CD5) on diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has occasionally been described in the literature, cases that show coexpression of =2 T-cell antigens on a well-documented case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma are extremely rare. Here, we describe a well-characterized case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that showed aberrant coexpression of 2 T-cell-associated antigens, CD2 and CD7. Recognition of these types of cases is important to help ensure accurate diagnoses are made.
