** High Priority **

Why not try staining for intranuclear cyclin D1 to determine if it is mantle cell
lymphoma? MCL is usually CD23-negative by tissue immunohistochemistry or dim by flow
cytometry.

Or if it is cyclin D1 positive, would anyone consider the term "atypical CLL"? Does
this have any meaning?
