SO Arch Pathol Lab Med. 1994 Jul;118(7):722-7. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/94296223 AB Polylobated lymphoma is a morphologic variant of malignant lymphoma characterized by large pleomorphic neoplastic cells with polylobated nuclei. We report an unusual case in a 57-year-old man with a 9-year history of an antecedent low-grade peripheral T-cell lymphoma with dermal involvement. The polylobated lymphoma expressed the CD2, 8, 45, and DR surface antigens and had a clonally rearranged T-cell receptor beta-chain gene. The DNA content analysis indicated that most of the neoplasm was DNA diploid and tetraploid, with a high S phase. Cytogenetic analysis demonstrated the presence of a clone with an abnormal karyotype 45, X, -Y, -1, -10, -10, -17, -19, +5 mar. Serology and polymerase chain reaction analysis showed no evidence of retroviral infection (human immunodeficiency virus types 1 and 2 and human T-cell lymphotropic virus types I and II). We review the literature on polylobated T-cell lymphoma.
