- Lymphocytosis is an increase in numbers of lymphocytes in the blood.
- Occurs:
- In tumours in which there is a substantial increase in their number.
- Some of the lymphocytes are immature - lymphoblasts.
- For example, Bovine Leukosis.
- Following adrenaline release in fear, excitement and so on.
- In some cases of chronic infection.
- However, reactive hyperplasia in associated lymph nodes may not correlate with the numbers of circulating lymphocytes.
- Commonly in growing swine.
- In tumours in which there is a substantial increase in their number.
- Possibly associated with aMycoplasma infection.
