Abstract:
A diffuse, large cell lymphoma of palatine tonsil was found to contain a considerable number of enlarged tumor cells with prominent, hyaline, Russell body-type cytoplasmic inclusions displacing the nucleus peripherally and, thus, the morphologic features of signet-ring cell lymphoma. Immunoperoxidase staining revealed that the contents of the signet-ring cells were strongly positive for mu heavy chains and kappa light chains. Ultrastructurally, Russell body-type inclusions consisted of multiple, angulated, electron-dense crystalloids enclosed within expanded segments of rough endoplasmic reticulum.
