55%
At least 55% percentage of prolymphocytes must be present for a diagnosis of prolymphocytic leukemia.
- These cells could be mixed in with bigger or abnormal cells, cleaved cells, or prolymphocytes, which could make up as much as 55% of the blood lymphocytes.
- A diagnosis of prolymphocytic leukemia would be more likely if there were more prolymphocytes than this percentage (B-cell PLL).
Prolymphocytic leukemia: What is it?
- B-cell: B-cells grow out of control in prolymphocytic leukemia (B-PLL), a relatively rare and often malignant malignancy (cancer) (B-lymphocytes).
- White blood cells called B-cells are a subset of the immune system.
What are prolymphocytes?
- Prolymphocytes were specifically described as big cells (>2 erythrocytes) with clumped chromatin, a big, obvious vesicular nucleolus, and typically a lot of cytoplasm.
- Larger (>3 erythrocytes), highly basophilic cytoplasm, big and often >1 nucleoli, and finely scattered chromatin were all characteristics of immunoblasts.
