Figure 1. The peripheral blood smear film demonstrated medium- to large-sized atypical mature lymphocytes, with abundant faintly basophilic cytoplasm and characteristic nuclei demonstrating a rounded or more commonly irregular nuclei (ie, bilobated or binucleated), which are typical in patients with PPBL; A and C show bilobated lymphocytes, B demonstrates a binucleated lymphocyte, and D shows a lymphocyte with irregular bilobated nucleus, (images, May-Grünwald-Giemsa staining, ×100 objective, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, AxioCam 105 color).
