Presentation
Organized by body system, each section begins with a general framework covering clinical presentation, laboratory and diagnostic evaluation, and empirical antibiotic therapy. [books.google.com]
Case reports are presented of 5 cases of acute infectious lymphocytosis in siblings, ages 2¼-10 years. Symptoms included diarrhea, abdominal pain, vomiting, fever and cough. There was an absolute lymphocytosis lasting about three weeks. [bloodjournal.org]
An enterovirus, presently untyped, but resembling the Coxsackie A subgroup in physical, chemical and host specificity, was isolated in 21% of the patients' stool specimens. [nejm.org]

After discussion, the pathologist and clinician felt that the reaction was probably due to the upper respiratory tract infection that she had, and the clinician monitored the patient clinically. [pediatriceducation.org]
These cases—as so often happens—had already been called suspicious for a lymphoproliferative disorder after smear review by a pathologist. [captodayonline.com]

Splenomegaly
An ultrasound study of 19 patients found that in 16 splenomegaly resolved in four weeks but in three it took eight weeks. [patient.info]
Splenomegaly is found in 50% of cases and hepatomegaly in approximately 10% of patients. Rash is present in 20% of cases. Complications are pneumonitis, meningoencephalitis, pericarditis, myocarditis, hepatitis, and laryngeal edema, all of which [slideshare.net]
There is almost never splenomegaly or lymphadenopathy. HTLV-1 may produce a transient lymphocytosis (usually 20.0 x10 9 /L) with fever,rash, and little lymphadenopathy. Most patients recover; however, some develop adult T cell leukemia. [med-ed.virginia.edu]

Lymphocytes Increased
Lymphocytosis A condition in which the number of lymphocytes increases above normal levels. lym·pho·cy·to·sis ( lim'fō-sī-tō'sis ) A form of leukocytosis in which there is an actual or relative increase in the number of lymphocytes. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
Patients with acute or chronic leukemia may also have an occurrence of atypical lymphocyte increase. [bestonlinemd.com]
Lymphocytes increase in many viral infections and with tuberculosis. A common reason for significant lymphocytosis is lymphocytic leukemia. The majority of both acute and chronic forms of leukemia affect lymphocytes. [rnceus.com]

Treatment
More treatment-centered approach helps you focus on the therapeutic process—from diagnostic evaluation and testing to treatment selection. [books.google.com]
Treatment the Bed rest, symptomatic means desensibilizing drugs, vitamins; antibiotics are shown at emergence of signs of consecutive infection. Current and forecast favorable. A wedge, manifestations stick to 4 — 5 days, 10 — 14 is more rare. [bigmed.info]
Treatment is primarily supportive, with rest during the acute stage of illness and symptomatic care. [hawaii.edu]
Prognosis
Prognosis Usually asymptomatic or of short duration and self-limiting. [patient.info]
Pneumonia, pyelonephritis, cellulitis, soft tissue infection, bacteremia, sepsis, meningitis, or endocarditis is all associated with neutrophilia, and, indeed, patients who fail to mount a significant leukocyte response to pyogenic infection have a worse prognosis [antimicrobe.org]
Etiology
The search for an etiology of the disease included infectious and noninfectious agents. Examinations of stools for parasites, cultures of throat and stool for bacteria, and cultures of throat, stool and blood for viruses were done. [nejm.org]
