**+/-Fever.
**+/-Multiple infarcts.
**+/-Non-specific skin lesions.
====Microscopic====
Features:
*Abundant atypical intravascular lymphoid cells that are:
**Large (~2-3X size of a mature lymphocyte or RBC).
**Nucleolus prominent.
Notes:
*It may be hard to find RBCs in the vessels.
*Looks sorta like a [[DLBCL]] -- but is intravascular.

===General===
*May look a lot like a carcinoma.
**Often subcapsular in LNs.
*Usually T-cell derived.
*May be isolated to the [[skin]] - good prognosis.
 
Subtypes:
* Systemic ALCL.

ALK IHC - systemic form:
* +ve = good prognosis.
* -ve = bad prognosis.
 
===Microscopic===
Features:
