Molecular Findings
Immunophenotype
The immunophenotype of this disease is the same as extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type and is shown in the table below. CD11b and CD16 show variable expression.
| Status | Antigens |
| Positive | CD2, CD3ε, CD56, perforin, granzyme B, TIA-1 |
| Negative | CD57 |
Genetic Findings
Due to the myeloid lineage, clonal rearrangements of lymphoid (T cell receptor; B cell receptor) genes are not seen. The genome of the Epstein Barr virus (EBV) is detected in many cases, along with a variety of chromosomal abnormalities.[2] Wong KF, Zhang YM, Chan JK.
