Acute liver failure due to natural killer-like T-cell leukemia/lymphoma: A case report and review of the Literature

Figure 1 Peripheral blood smear-high power (1000 ×) view of atypically large lymphoid cells with blastic chromatin and abundant cytoplasm containing fine azurophilic granules.

Figure 2 Ascites cell-block- high power (600 ×) view of large lymphocytes with molding, convoluted nuclear membranes, dense chromatin, and abundant cytoplasm. Features are supportive of possible T-cell morphology.

Figure 3 Liver biopsy-low power (200 ×) view of the liver parenchyma infiltrated by a malignant lymphoid population composed of intermediate-sized to large atypical lymphocytes (A) and liver biopsy-high power (1000 ×) view of the liver parenchyma showing intermediate-sized to large atypical lymphocytes with very irregular nuclear contours and dense nuclear chromatin (B).
