Figure 1 Schematic diagram showing the presence of peripheral lymphocytosis in cases 2 through 4 after cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonia. In all three cases, the percentage of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood was plotted against the duration after bone marrow transplantation (BMT) as well as after CMV pneumonia. Figure 1a (left) shows the peripheral lymphocytosis during CMV pneumonia as well as prior to the presentation of BOOP in case 2. Similar pattern was obtained in case 1. In 1B (case 3) and 1C (upper and lower right) (case 4), the black dots represent the percentage of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. In both cases, the percentage of lymphocytes is persistently above the normal range (20 percent) until relapse of the primary malignancy. In 1B (case 3), the total white blood cell count during the same period was also shown (the white dot).
