T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia associated with renal cell carcinoma: A case report
Zhi-Yuan Qiu1, Yan Wang1, Jun Zhang1
1Department of Oncology, The Affiliated People's Hospital of Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang.
Rationale:
T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL) is a rare lymphoproliferative neoplasm of cytotoxic T cells and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common form of kidney cancer, but T-LGLL associated with RCC has never been reported.
Patient Concerns:
A 58-year-old Chinese male presented with general fatigue and intermittent-remittent fever, accompanied by palpitations and dizziness.
Diagnosis:
Radical nephrectomy was performed, and a diagnosis of clear cell carcinoma (T1N0M0, I phase) was made based on the postoperative pathology findings. With typical cellular morphology, immunophenotype and T-cell receptor gene rearrangement, a diagnosis of T-LGLL was established.
Interventions:
After radical nephrectomy, this patient remained asymptomatic without any treatment.
Outcomes:
To date, the patient is generally in good condition, without complaints of discomfort.
Lessons:
The coexistence of these 2 entities may not be coincidental, and it is likely that they may share a common pathogenic pathway related to immune dysregulation.
