Figure

  • Fig. 1 A-D A few vacuolated pink inclusions of different sizes were found in the cytoplasm of lymphoma cells in bone marrow aspirate (black arrow, Wright–Giemsa staining;×1000).These inclusions, known as pseudo-Chédiak-Higashi anomalies, are rare in mature B-cell tumors and draw attention to the unique morphological characteristics of these cells. E These inclusions were negative for myeloperoxidase staining (black arrow, POX staining;×1000). F These inclusions were positive for periodic acid-Schiff staining (black arrow, PAS staining;×1000)
