Acute cholestatic Hodgkin's lymphoma: an unusual clinical picture.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Chronic myeloid leukemia arises from a somatic mutation in a pluripotent stem cell. It generally terminates with a blastic crisis (BC). One third of BC are lymphoid, and most have a pre-B phenotype. Few cases of T-lymphoid BC have been reported. Here we describe a lymph node blast crisis mimicking T-immunobl...
