Abstract
This case underscores the pivotal role of early cytological examination of bodily fluids in the preliminary detection of lymphoma, a conclusion reinforced by subsequent pathological findings and refined through immunohistochemical characterization. A morphological analysis of pleural effusion cells was conducted in a 25-year-old male presenting initially with concurrent pleural and pericardial effusions. Initial morphological assessment of effusion specimens indicated the likelihood of a lymphoproliferative disorder. Subsequent detailed pathological and immunohistochemical investigations confirmed this suspicion, culminating in a definitive diagnosis of T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL). The case emphasizes the necessity of employing a comprehensive and synergistic diagnostic approach, facilitating prompt and accurate diagnosis and subtyping of lymphoma.
