โœฆ Synopsis

A patient with long-standing chronic lymphocytic leukemia with both humoral and cellular immunodeficiency had lymph node receptor evidence of a B lymphocyte disorder. He was also found to secrete the Epstein--Barr virus and, late in his illness, developed a markedly positive antinuclear antibody. Interrelationship of these findings may be important in the ultimate determination of the etiology and functional mechanisms in lymphocyte malignancies.
