Abstract

An autopsy report of a 76 years old Japanese male, who had suffered from gamma- HCD, was presented. This is the fifth case of gamma-HCD in Japan and this communication is the first autopsy report made on gamma-HCD in our country. The primary pathological alteration of this disorder is a neoplastic proliferation of atypical lympho-plasmacytes extending throughout the entire hematopoietic and parenchymatous organs. Pathological characteristics of our case were compared with the same disorders reported in the world literatures.
