Abstract
Indolent γδ T cell lymphomas/leukemias are rare and overlap with the morphological spectrum of large granular lymphocyte (LGL) leukemia. We report an extremely rare case of CD103(+) γδ T LGL leukemia in a patient with celiac disease who presented with refractory diarrhea. Whether the refractory diarrhea in our patient was a manifestation of LGL leukemia itself or whether the clonal LGL expansion is a manifestation of refractory celiac disease (RCD) remains an enigma. This report highlights the diagnostic difficulties and the need of consensus in categorizing clonal CD103(+) lymphocytosis in patients with RCD.Entities:
