Neutrophilic thrombophagocytosis.
Abstract
Thrombocytopenia as a complication of B-cell lymphoma usually results from the removal of platelets from the circulation by splenic and hepatic mononuclear phagocytes.1,2 In the present paper, we describe a case of B-cell lymphoma with thrombocytopenia in which the platelets were phagocytosed by the patient's own neutrophilic granulocytes. This finding suggests that neutrophilic granulocytes actively participate in immune platelet clearance.
