Clinical Features
- Lymphadenopathy
- Hepatosplenomegaly
- "B" symptoms (fever, night sweats, weight loss)
- GI: GI bleed, intussusception, nausea/vomiting
- Signs/symptoms of complications:

- Pleural effusion, pericardial effusion
- Malignant cord compression
- Tumor lysis syndrome (rare in absence of active treatment)
