West Africa, and the Caribbean; aggressive Peripheral T-cell 1ymphoma, unspecified Helper or cytotoxic T cell No specific chromosoma1 abnormality Mainly older adults; usually presents with lymphadenopathy; aggressive Anaplastic large-cell lymphoma Cytotoxic T cell Rearrangements of ALK Children and young adults, usually with lymph node and soft-tissue disease; aggressive Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma NK-cell (common) or cytotoxic T cell (rare) E8V-associated; no spec fie chromos om al abnormality Adults with destructive extranodal masses, most commonly sinonasal; aggressive Mycosis fungoides/Sezary syndrome Helper T cell No specific chromosomal abnormality Adult patients with cutaneous patches, plaques, nodules, or generalized erythemas indolent Large granular lymphocytic leukemia Two types: cytotoxic T cell and \K cell No specific chromosomal abnormality Adult patients with splenomegaly, neutropenia, and anemia, sometimes, accompanied by autoimmune disease.
