He subsequently developed pneumoconiosis and pulmonary rheumatoid nodules (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>), being diagnosed as Caplan's syndrome. During his progression, he was treated with NSAIDs, corticosteroids, gold salts, cyclosporine and methotrexate. Despite this, the patient developed structural damage in the hands, feet and hips, requiring placement of prosthesis in both hips at 51 and 54 years of age, respectively. In recent years, his disease remained stable, treated with methotrexate 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mg weekly and low doses of glucocorticoids, with no evidence of inflammatory joint activity. He presented ‘gooseneck’ deformities in all fingers and rheumatoid nodules on the elbows. 12 months ago he suddenly developed fever and pain in his right groin, with subsequent septic shock, demonstrating an infection of the right hip by <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp. Methotrexate and glucocorticoids were suspended, and he was treated with prolonged antibiotic therapy and partial replacement of the prosthesis. Laboratory tests evidenced persistent neutropenia, despite the withdrawal of myelotoxic drugs and the improvement of sepsis, reaching 0<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>neutrophils/mm<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span>. Retrospectively, when reviewing the numbers of neutrophils, he had low counts a year earlier, between 1800 and 1000/mm<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span>. The rest of the blood count and biochemistry were normal. The ESR was 80<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm/h and CRP 111<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mg/l.

Antinuclear antibodies and extractable nuclear antigens were negative and complement levels were within normal values. HLA typing showed that he carried the haplotype DRB1*0404 (DR4) and mild splenomegaly was detected (13.7<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm) on abdominal computed tomography.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The peripheral blood smear showed lymphocytosis by LGL (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig. 2</a>), which in the immunophenotype corresponded to 42% of total leukocytes, with an aberrant phenotype of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CD3+, CD8+, CD5+, CD7+/−, CD4−, CD56− and DR+). The bone marrow biopsy showed 20% of the total marrow cellularity corresponding to the same clonal expansion (confirmed by rearrangement of the variable region of TCR gamma).

In refractory patients and in those with very aggressive presentation treatment with chemotherapy regimens similar to CHOP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin and prednisone) and other schemes for lymphoma have been tried, but have not clearly demonstrated their effectiveness. Other treatments that have been tested are purine analogues, Alemtuzumab, bortezomib, splenectomy and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, with variable results.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a></p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Conclusions</span><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Both FS and LGLL are rare complications of RA, which appear in long-standing disease, with significant structural damage and extra-articular manifestations. In patients with longstanding RA and neutropenia the presence of clonal proliferations of LGL in peripheral blood and/or bone marrow should be ruled out, allowing for the diagnosis of LGLL. First line treatment is the use of immunosuppressive drugs, such as low-dose methotrexate, and glucocorticoids may be associated with granulopoiesis stimulating factors. Other treatment modalities such as chemotherapy or splenectomy have shown variable results in some refractory cases.</p></span><span id="sec0030" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Ethical disclosures</span><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Protection of human and animal subjects</span>.
