Concurrent T‐cell lymphocytic lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis

A case in which both malignant histiocytosis and T‐cell lymphocytic lymphoma occurred together is presented. Examples of malignant histiocytosis‐like syndromes associated with lymphoreticular malignancies, have been previously reported. Many of these represent reactive haemophagocytic syndromes, probably virally induced. The considerable degree of cytological atypia and frequent mitotic figures seen in the histiocytes in this case were indicative of a true malignant histiocytosis.
