Abstract:
Although novel therapies have improved the treatment outcome of patients, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is still considered incurable. Recently, a novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2), causing coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid 19), emerged in late 2019, and it has posed a global health threat. In a limited number of cases, it has been shown that some lymphoma types spontaneously regress after SARS-CoV2 infection suggesting that the infection can trigger de immune system against the tumour cell. Cross-reactivity of pathogen-specific T cells with tumour antigens and natural killer cell activation can be the possible mechanism of this hypothesis.

The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
