Introduction: Persistent polyclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (PPBL) is a rare lymphoproliferative hematological disease characterized by binucleated lymphocytes, CD 19 CD 5lymphocytosis, and elevated levels of serum immunoglobulin M (IgM). It can rarely be associated with splenomegaly, though the disease usually remains indolent.
Case Presentation: We present a case of PPBL in a young man with massive splenomegaly that mimicked isolated splenic lymphoma requiring splenectomy for persistent pain, symptoms, and diagnosis.
Objective: To describe a woman with a previously unrecognized pheochromocytoma who died after ingesting over-the-counter pseudoephedrine-containing medications.
Methods: We present a case report including laboratory, radiographic, and pathologic findings in a patient with a previously unrecognized pheochromocytoma.
Results: A 31-year-old woman had symptoms consistent with intermittent, excessive release of catecholamines since childhood.
