Histopathologic features of HSTCL. (A) Splenic biopsy shows diffuse sinusoidal infiltrates of atypical lymphocytes of variable size with loosely condensed nuclear chromatin and inconspicuous nucleoli (hematoxylin and eosin [H&E] stain; image original magnification, 40×). (B) Bone marrow biopsy shows relative hypercellularity with dilated sinuses containing bland-appearing small lymphocytes (H&E stain; image original magnification 40×). (C) Malignant cells usually stain positive for T-cell markers, including CD3 (H&E stain; image original magnification 40×). (D) Most express TCR γδ (H&E stain; image original magnification 40×). The most common cytogenetic abnormality in HSTCL is isochromosome 7 (E), followed by trisomy 8 (F).
