  • Title: In-111 leukocyte scanning and partial functional asplenia in a patient with Sézary syndrome.
    Author: Hazenberg HJ, Hiddink HJ, Link EA, Muller CJ, Smeenk G, Brouwers TM.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1983 Jan; 8(1):3-6. PubMed ID: 6831816.
    Abstract:
    Functional asplenia is described in the case report of an 80-year-old woman who was admitted with Sézary syndrome. The spleen could not be visualized by a Tc-99m tin colloid (SnC) liver and spleen scan, but was visualized by a Tc-99m sulfur colloid (SC) scan, suggesting a different mechanism in accumulation of SnC and SC in the spleen. In-111 oxine labeled Sézary cells could be found in the spleen, bone marrow, and lymph nodes.
