Abstract:
A 33-year-old man developed seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) followed soon after by a monoclonal lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by CD4 positive T lymphocytes in his peripheral blood, bone marrow and lymph nodes. Previous reports of polyarthritis in association with a T cell lymphoproliferative disorder have all involved the CD8 phenotype.
