TI  - CD56 positive intestinal T-cell lymphoma: treatment with high dose chemotherapy 
      and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
PG  - 734-7
AB  - A 63-year-old man presented with a perforation of the small intestine. A 
      diagnosis of intestinal T-cell lymphoma (ITCL) was made from CD (cluster 
      differentiation) 3 positivity and a rearrangement of T-cell receptor genes. The 
      tumor also expressed CD56, which suggests it belongs to a rare subtype derived 
      from activated cytotoxic intraepithelial T lymphocytes. Although the prognosis of 
      ITCL has been considered to be very poor irrespective of CD56 positivity, 
      complete remission was achieved in this case by high dose chemotherapy followed 
      by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (auto-PBSCT) even after 
      relapse. Auto-PBSCT in the earlier stage of the disease might improve the 
      prognosis.
