The antigenic specificity of the majority of T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood is determined by the combination of a and p variable region chains present in the T cell receptor complex. Currently, the Vp chains are grouped into 25 families. Historically, determination of Vp usage has relied on d

Pulmonary recurrence of malignant lymphoma is a rare event after stem cell transplantation. We report here a 45-year-old male who was successfully diagnosed with relapsed pulmonary T-cell lymphoma using an RT-PCR method. Clonal expansion of T cells expressing identical TCR V-D-J junction size (V5-J
## Abstract EBNA‐positive lymphoblast cells were detected in 0.1 to 0.9% of the T‐cell‐depleted lymphocytes obtained from peripheral blood samples of five patients with infectious mononucleosis (IM). The same blood specimens from four of the five patients contained cells that formed EBNA‐positive c
