[Analysis of Clinical Characteristics in 10 Patietns with T Large Granular Lymphocytic Leukemia]

To analyze the clinical manifestations and laboratory features of patients with T large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL), so as to improve the understanding of this disease.

The clinical data of 10 patients with T-LGLL in General Hospital of Chinese PLA from October 2015 to March 2010 were analyzed retrospectively.

Their median age at diagnosis was 51 years old. 9/10 (90%) patients showed symptoms of anemia, with a median Hb level of 82.5 g/L, 5/10 (50%) patients combined with autoimmune disorders and with a median Hb level of 77 g/L. 7/10 (70%) patients had splenomegaly, 2/10 (20%) patients had complex karyotype, 2/10 (20%) patients had gene mutations, the median age of 4 patients with complex karyotype and gene mutation was 49 years old, all of them suffered from splenomegaly. The immunophenotype of 6/10 patients was CD3+ CD4- CD8+ and that of 2/10 patients (20%) was CD3+ CD4- CD8-, that of another 2/10 (20%) was CD3+ CD4+ CD8-, the clinical features between different types of immunization were not statistically different.

T-LGLL patients often are old men, combined with anemia and splenomegaly, often associated with autoimmune diseases; the patients with complex karyotype and gene mutation are younger and they are more with hepatosplenomegaly; the guide role of different immunotypes for clinical strategy is no significant.
