--results in complete remmission
Mnemonic to some it all up:
I like to think of hairy cells as trapped in their own world.
They are TRAP stain positive. They are trapped in the red pulp. They are trapped in the bone marrow and that’s why you get a dry tap. They trapped everywhere else, therefore, they don’t show up in the lymph nodes and that’s why the clinical finding of lymphadenopathy is absent.
