Light green crystals in May-Grünwald and Giemsa-stained bone marrow macrophages in patients with myeloid leukaemia.
A patient in a terminal stage of myelomocytic leukaemia had a number of elongated crystals in many bone marrow macrophages. The crystals were up to 20 micron long, showed a characteristic light green colour with May-Grünwald & Giemsa, but did not stain with Sudan Black B or PAS. Electron microscopy showed that many of the crystals had a rhomboid form, but failed to show periodicity with the magnification used. A search was made for similar light green crystalline inclusions in patients with different types of leukaemia. Identical inclusions were found in 2 out of 5 other cases of myelomonocytic leukaemia, and in 3 out of 5 cases of chronic myeloid leukaemia. In contrast, such inclusions were not found in any of 6 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, nor in 4 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.

Jejunal villous atrophy and granulomatous inflammation responding to a gluten--free diet.
A 48 year old female patient with intestinal malabsorption and subtotal to total jejunal villous atrophy also had granulomatous inflammation characterised by numerous epitheloid and giant cell granulomas in the stomach, the jejunum, and the liver, On a gluten-free diet a complete remission was achieved that included disappearance of the granulomatous inflammation. It is suggested that the granulomas in this case were manifestations of the gluten intolerance.
