Abstract:Background: Absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) recovery is an independent prognostic factor for survival for different hematological malignancies treated with autologous stem cell transplantation. Recently, we reported superior overall survival (OS) in patients with follicular lymphomas that presented with a higher ALC (ALC ≥ 1 x 109/L) at diagnosis. The role of ALC at diagnosis on survival in T cell lymphomas is not known.
Methods: All patients evaluated at the Mayo Clinic for T cell lymphomas fro… Show more
