  • Title: Leukopheresis in the leukemic phase of hairy cell leukemia. A case report.
    Author: Baum KF.
    Journal: Cancer; 1982 Dec 15; 50(12):2926-7. PubMed ID: 7139582.
    Abstract:
    A 43-year-old male with hairy cell leukemia presented seven months after splenectomy with fatigue, adenopathy, dependence on erythrocyte transfusions, a leukocyte of 85 X 10(9)/L and a platelet count of 15 X 10(9)/L. Leukopheresis resulted in a transient resolution of adenopathy and an improvement in hematologic counts. Leukopheresis may be of value in stabilizing the patient in the leukemic phase of hairy cell leukemia.
