Miriam Ochshorn, Mordechai Tchetchik, Rita Michalevicz, Albert Behar, and Uri Seligsohn
Abstract
A case of angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with a 17-year follow-up is reported. The patient, who first presented with benign hypergammaglobulinaemic purpura of Waldenstrom and autoimmune haemolytic anaemia appears to be the longest survivor with this condition reported so far.
The marked variations in the clinical course of patients with angio-immunoblastic lymphadenopathy in conjunction with immunological characteristics are discussed.
