Definition / Description of Disease[1]

  • Persistent (>6 months) increase in peripheral blood NK-cell count without a clearly identifiable cause
  • NK-cell count usually >2x109/L
  • Indolent

Synonyms / Terminology[1]

  • Chronic NK-lymphocytosis
  • Chronic NK large granular lymphocyte lymphoproliferative disorder
  • Indolent large granular NK-cell lymphoproliferative disorder

Epidemiology / Prevalence[1]

  • Adults (median age 60 years old)
  • No known racial or genetic predisposition

Sites of Involvement[1]

  • Peripheral blood
  • Bone marrow

Morphologic Features[1]

  • NK-cells are typically intermediate in size
  • Monotonous cells with round nuclei and moderate cytoplasm with fine or coarse azurophilic granules
  • Intrasinusoidal and interstitial infiltration of bone marrow

Immunophenotype[1]


Finding Marker
Positive CD16
Positive cytoplasmic CD3-epsilon
Positive (frequent) weak CD56
Positive Cytotoxic markers

(TIA1, granzyme B & granzyme M)

Positive CD94
Decreased to negative CD2, CD7, CD57, CD161
Negative surface CD3
Restricted or lack of expression KIR isoforms (CD158a, b, c)
Negative EBV
