There is a mixed cell population. The cells are pleomorphic round cells showing anisocytosis and anisokaryosis. The large nuclei and thin rims of cytoplasm suggest they are of lymphoid origin. The cytoplasm is intensely basophilic. The nuclei have irregular borders and clumped chromatin, and nucleoli are present in some. The cells are considered to be neoplastic lymphocytes. | There is a mixed cell population. The cells are pleomorphic round cells showing anisocytosis and anisokaryosis.
