摘要
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I)1 is the etiologic agent of adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma.2 The serum of patients with this disease contains antibodies to HTLV-I,3 and there is monoclonal integration of HTLV-I proviruses in the malignant cells.4 The principal clinical features of adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma5 are lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, skin lesions, and hypercalcemia. Compromise of the immune system can allow opportunistic infection. The blood contains abnormal lymphocytes with characteristic indented or convoluted nuclei (flower cells). These malignant lymphocytes are activated CD4-positive T cells with increased expression of the alpha chain of the interleukin-2 receptor.
