An exploratory study on the differential diagnostic indicators between adult systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma with... by Xiaodan Zheng, Yuanyuan Zheng, Yanlin Zhang, Jianlan Xie, Xiaojing Teng, Kuo Bi, Lan Sun, Xiaowen Huang, Mulan Jin, Xiaoge Zhou

“…Abstract Background The differential diagnosis between adult systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders (EBV+ T-LPD) and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) with multiple EBV infections is difficult, and distinguishing between the two has become a diagnostic challenge for pathologists. Given that the clinical treatment plans are different, an accurate diagnosis is a prerequisite to ensure effective treatment, therefore, it is extremely necessary and meaningful to find effective pathological indicators for distinguishing between two diseases. …”
