The ribosome-lamella complex (RLC) is a cylindrical structure composed of different numbers of circular lamellae with associated particles, regarded as ribosomes, around a central core. Structures resembling RLC, but lacking the typical mature appearance of RLC, have been called pre-RLC. The authors have found RLCs and pre-RLCs in peripheral lymphocytes of 3 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

Ribosome-lamella complexes (RLCs) are mainly observed in a variety of hematological disorders and occasionally in solid neoplasms and in nonneoplastic diseases. These intracytoplasmic organelles are held to arise from rough endoplasmic reticulum, but, in agreement with more recent literature data, their function is still unclear. Ultrastructural analysis of glomeruli from a patient with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis secondary to metabolic syndrome disclosed significant foot process loss and abundant cytoskeletal proteins in major podocyte processes; two of the latter also displayed RLCs.

The ribosome-lamella complex (RLC) is a cylindrical structure composed of annular lamella associated particles, regarded as ribosomes, around a central core, which is best known in hairy cell leukemia. RLC has been presumed to originate from aggregating rER and ribosomes. Incomplete and maturing RLC structures have been called RLC precursors (pre-RLC).
