Hypersensitivity to Mosquito Bites Associated with Natural Killer Cell-derived Large Granular Lymphocyte Lymphocytosis: A Case Report in Korea

ABSTRACT
Hypersensitivity to mosquito bites (HMB) is characterized by intense skin reactions at bite sites. The pathogenesis of HMB might be related to clonal lymphoproliferation of Epstein-Barr virus DNA-positive natural killer (NK) cells. We report the first case of HMB possibly associated with NK cell-derived large granular lymphocyte (NK-LGL) lymphocytosis in Korea.
