Abstract:
Objective:To improve the cognition of T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL) combined with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA).Methods:The clinical characteristics, peripheral blood and bone marrow laboratory indicators of 14 newly diagnosed patients with T-LGLL combined with PRCA who were admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Lianyungang Affiliated to Bengbu Medical College and the People's Hospital of Jiangsu Province from August 2010 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among the 14 patients, there were 7 males and 7 females, with a median age of 58.5 years (33-75 years). At the first visit, the median white blood cell count was 5.02×10 9/L [(1.45-8.49)×10 9/L], the median absolute value of neutrophils was 1.35×10 9/L [(0.43-7.16)×10 9/L], the median lymphocyte ratio was 0.49 (0.13-0.77), the median hemoglobin was 58 g/L (42-106 g/L), the median red blood cell count was 2.01×10 12/L [(0.99-3.20)×10 12/L], the median reticulocyte count percentage was 0.52 (0.14-3.02), the median platelet was 96×10 9/L [(38-281)×10 9/L], the median large granular lymphocytes accounted for 71% (32%-81%) of lymphocytes. Bone marrow aspiration showed that the median large granular lymphocytes accounted for 0.16 (0.08-0.41) of nuclear cells, and the median serum β 2 microglobulin was 4.85 mg/L (2.81-7.22 mg/L). Two patients had ASXL1 and TET2 mutations, and one of them had STAT3, EP300 and FAM46C mutations. Six patients were T cell receptor (TCR) β and γ-positive, 1 patient were TCRβ-positive, 4 patients were TCRγ-positive, 1 patient was TCRδ-positive, 1 patient was TCRβ, γ and δ-positive, and 1 patient was all negative. Eight cases received cyclosporine therapy, 6 cases were effective; 6 cases received methotrexate combined with hormone therapy, 3 cases were effective. The initial induction therapy was effective in 9 cases, 5 patients who failed in the initial treatment received salvage treatment, and 2 cases were effective. Conclusions:The laboratory characteristics of patients with T-LGLL combined with PRCA are similar to those of simple T-LGLL, anemia is a prominent manifestation accompanied by neutropenia or thrombocytopenia. The large granular lymphocytes are easily seen in peripheral blood and bone marrow, and T monoclonal rearrangement of lymphocytes is an important feature, and the patients respond well to immunosuppressive therapy.
