===Definition===
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma classification|Classification]]==
'''Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma''' is a systemic [[neoplasm]] comprised of medium-sized cytotoxic [[T-cells]] that show a significant sinusoidal infiltration in the [[liver]], [[spleen]], and [[bone marrow]].<ref name="who1"/>


==Epidemiology==
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==
This [[lymphoma]] is rare, comprising less than 5% of all cases, and is most common in young adults and adolescents. A distinct male gender preference has been described.<ref name="coo1">[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=8943863&query_hl=7&itool=pubmed_ExternalLink]

==Clinical Features==
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]==


===Etiology===
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology & Demographics]]==
The cell of origin for this disease is an immature cytotoxic [[T-cell]] clonally expressing the γδ [[T-cell receptor]]. This disease is seen more often in immunosuppressed solid organ transplant recipients, an association that has led to the hypothesis that long-term immune stimulation in the setting of immunosuppression is the causative agent.<ref name="ros1"> [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=8085554&query_hl=10&itool=pubmed_ExternalLink]

===Clinical Presentation===
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma epidemiology and demographics|Risk Factors]]==
The typical clinical finding in a patient with hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma is [[hepatosplenomegaly]].<ref name="far1">[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=2140703&query_hl=14&itool=pubmed_ExternalLink] Farcet JP, Gaulard P, Marolleau JP, Le Couedic JP, Henni T, Gourdin MF, Divine M, Haioun C, Zafrani S, Goossens M, ''et al''.

===Laboratory Findings===
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma screening|Screening]]==
The constellation of [[thrombocytopenia]], [[anemia]], and [[leukocytosis]] is common in patients with hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma.<ref name="coo1"/> The discovery of neoplastic cells in peripheral blood is often a finding late in the clinical course.<ref name="who1"/>


===Sites of Involvement===
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma causes|Causes]]==
The [[spleen]] and [[liver]] are always involved, with [[bone marrow]] involvement frequently present. Nodal involvement is exceedingly rare.<ref name="coo1"/><ref name="who1">[http://www.iarc.fr/WHO-BlueBooks/BBwebsite/bb3.html] Jaffe E.S., Harris N.L., Stein H., Vardiman J.W. (eds): '''World Health Organization Classification of Tumors. Pathology and Genetics of Tumours of Haemopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues.''' IARC Press: Lyon 2001 </ref>


==Morphology==
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma differential diagnosis|Differentiating Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma from other Diseases]]==
The neoplastic cells in this disorder show a monotonous appearance, with a small amount of [[cytoplasm]] and inconspicuous [[nucleoli]].<ref name="coo1"/>


===Spleen and liver===
==[[Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma natural history|Natural History, Complications & Prognosis]]==
This disease shows a distinct [[sinusoidal]] pattern of infiltration which spares the splenic [[white pulp]] and hepatic [[portal triads]].<ref name="who1"/>


===Bone marrow===
==Diagnosis==
While the [[bone marrow]] is commonly involved, the detection of the neoplastic infiltrate may be difficult due to diffuse, interstitial pattern. [[Immunohistochemistry]] can aid in the detection of this [[lymphoma]].<ref name="who1"/>

==Molecular Findings==
===Immunophenotype===
The immunophenotype for hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma is a post-thymic, immature [[T-cell]].<ref name="who1"/><ref name="coo1"/>

===Genetic Findings===
Clonal rearrangement of the γ gene of the [[T-cell receptor]] is the hallmark of this disease. A few cases have shown rearrangement of the [[T-cell receptor]] β gene.<ref name="who1"/> [[Isochromosome]] 7q has been observed in all cases described so far, sometimes in conjunction with other [[chromosomal]] abnormalities such as [[trisomy]] 8.<ref name="alo1">[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=9264394&query_hl=16&itool=pubmed_ExternalLink]
