A case of infectious mononucleosis was presented. She was admitted to the hospital with the anterior cervical lymphadenopathy. Erythematous skin rashes on both low extermities, and splenomegaly. Her chief complaints were fever and sore throat. She showed atypical lymphocytes in peripheral blood smear with relative lymphocytosis. Mono-spot test was positive. She received symptomatic therapy and discharged without any complications. So, we report this case and review the brief literatures of infectious mononucleosis with the respect to etiology, clinical course, and histological characteristics of the disease.

Self-healing reticulohistiocytosis is a perinatal disease characterized by rapidly developing and involuting benign histiocytic infiltration of the skin and other organ. We had recently experienced a case of a self-healing reticulohistiocytosis in 99-day-old infant who presented with multiple erythematous nodular lesions on face and trunk and pancytopenia. Our case differed from those previously reported in that extracutaneous involvement was found. The patient had pancytopenia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypofibrinogenemia hyperferritinemia and hepatosplenomegaly as well as skin lesions. Bone marrow showed a marked lymphocytosis with many histiocytes. We described a detailed clinical features of this case and reviewed the literatures.

T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) is a post-thymic T-cell malignancy that has an aggressive clinical course and it is a distinct clinico-biological entity from other T-cell disorders. It is now apparent that this disease represents a separate entity from CLL. Clinically, T-PLL presents with hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, skin lesion, and marked lymphocytosis exceeding 100x109/L. Because its clinical course is aggressive, the treatment is difficult. We report a case of small cell variant of T-cell with a review of literatures.

Hypersensitivity to mosquito bites is a disorder characterized by necrotic skin reactions and systemic generalized symptoms subsequent to mosquito bites. This disease has been reported mostly in Japanese patients in their first two decades of life. Recent studies have revealed that hypersensitivity to mosquito bites is frequently associated with chronic Epstein-Barr virus infection and natural killer cell leukemia/lymphoma. We describe here a Korean male adolescent who had hypersensitivity to mosquito bites accompanied by chronic Epstein-Barr virus infection and atypical lymphocytosis.

Sulfone hypersensitivity syndrome, which is characterized by fever, skin rash, hemolytic anemia, atypical lymphocytosis, and acute hepatic injury, is a potentially fatal variant of dapsone hypersensitivity. A 62-year-old woman with a history of arthralgia developed sulfone syndrome while receiving dapsone 100 mg/day for 20 days. Fever, malaise, prominent rashes, hepatitis, eosinophilia and hemolytic anemia developed and she which required hospitalization. The patient's symptoms reversed following discontinuation of dapsone and administration of steroid (0.5 mg/kg). A case of sulfone syndrome and a brief review of the literature were presented.

Diffuse infiltrative lymphocytosis syndrome is an autoimmune syndrome that is characterized by the oligoclonal expansion of CD8+ T-lymphocytes in response to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antigens. The clinical manifestations include bilateral enlargement of the parotid glands, lymphocytic interstitial pneumonitis, lymphocytic hepatitis, neurological involvement and systemic lymphadenopathies. In addition to a positive HIV test, the diagnostic histopathological findings are CD8+ T-lymphocytic infiltrations in the lymphnodes, liver, lung, muscle and the salivary or lacrimal glands without granulomatous or neoplastic involvement. We report a case of pulmonary involvement of diffuse infiltrative lymphocytosis syndrome that was associated with a human immunodeficiency virus infection.
