terminal hemophagocytosis syndrome. All five relapsed tumors were found to have a strong expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp).
Conclusions. The authors suggest that EBV-associated PTCL should be regarded as a separate entity of non-Hodgkin lymphoma showing characteristic histopathologic features, frequent expression of P-gp in relapsed tumor, a terminal hemophagocytosis syndrome, and a generally ominous outcome.

Although Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) positivity has been described in peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) in Chinese patients, the cellular lineage of EBV-harbouring cells is unknown. Forty-four cases of PTCL were therefore studied by in situ hybridization (ISH) for EBV-encoded small non-polyadenylated
Cutaneous T-Cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of unknown pathogenesis. Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a clinically determined subset of CTCL with intensive infiltration of lymphoma cells into the epidermis. To determine whether Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is associated with these lymphoma cel
