Abstract

An atypical lymphoproliferative process occurred in the liver and spleen of a child with combined immunodeficiency disease and polyglandular failure syndrome. The initial pathologic interpretation was that of malignant lymphoma, although the child's subsequent clinical course was complicated by rheumatoid arthritis, thyroiditis, and chronic active hepatitis, with no clear evidence of lymphoid neoplasia. This case illustrates that unusual lymphoid proliferations in patients with immunodeficiencies may simulate malignant lymphoma.
