RESUMO
Seven cases of hairy cell leukemia (leukemic reticulo-endotheliosis) are presented in which peripheral blood or splenic hairy cells or both were identified engulfing autologous red blood cells or platelets. In 3 patients, approximately 5-15% of their peripheral blood hairy cells were engulfing red cells and platelets. In 2 patients, intercellular junctions were present between processes of hairy cells and were similar to processes occasionally seen connecting Langerhans cells to each other. Also, parallel tubular arrays were identified in the cytoplasm of hairy cells from 2 other patients. We conclude that autologous red blood cell and platelet engulfment is a common finding in hairy cell leukemia.
