Overview
The histopathologic study may be helpful in the diagnosis of Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome(ALPS). Findings suggestive of ALPS include paracortical expansion due to infiltration of polyclonal TCR α/β+ DNT cells, follicular hyperplasia, and polyclonal plasmacytosis.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Histopathological study findings can be helpful to diagnose Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome. The findings are
- Paracortical expansion with infiltration of polyclonal TCR α/β+ DNT cells.[1]
- DNT cells express TIA-1 and CD57, CD45RO negative
- Follicular hyperplasia
- Polyclonal plasmacytosis
- Spleen has expanded T cell areas dominated by DNT cells.
