Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of adult T-cell leukemia include abnormal anemia, thrombocytopenia, and elevated lymphocyte count. Hypercalcemia is a key feature among patients with adult T-cell leukemia.
Laboratory Findings
The following laboratory abnormalities may be observed in patients suffering from adult T-cell leukemia:[1][2][3]
Complete Blood Count
- Anemia
- Thrombocytopenia
- Elevated lymphocyte count
Basic Metabolic Panel
Peripheral Smear
- Characteristic leukemia cells with sharp nuclear indentations and a prominent nucleoli
- "Cloverleaf" or "flower" cells
Antibody Titres
- Detects antibodies present against HTLV antigens
Immunohistochemistry
