case_images: The second population of small lymphoid cells was characterized by heterotypic nuclei and condensed chromatin. The cells were immunopositive for PD1, CD2, CD3, CD5, CD7, CD8, CD4 (weakly positive), CD8 > CD4, TIA1 and Ki-67 40%+, and immunonegative for GrB, CD10, CD20, CD56 and CXCL-13 (Figure 1).
case_images: FCM results showing positive CD2, CD3, CD4, CD5, CD7 and CD8 immunoreactivity in BM cells of case 1.

case_images: The results of flow cytometry (FCM) revealed the proportions of lymphocytic and CD3+ cells to be 36.4% and 30.3%, respectively, and BM cells expressed CD2, CD3, CD4dim, CD5, CD7, CD8 and CD4/CD8 (3.9%/61.8% = 0.06) (Figure 2).
