Heyyyy

Atypical lymphocytes Are wbc. These WBC's are "atypical" because they are larger (more cytoplasm) and have nucleoli in their nuclei. The cytoplasm tends to be indented by surrounding RBC's. Such atypical lymphocytes are often associated with infectious mononucleosis from Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection.

"Lymphocytes" can be defined as the the smallest leucocytes, slightly larger than the Red Blood Cells (RBCs).

Extra Information :-

Lymphocytes are small, non-phagocytic cells with round, dense nuclei and a small amount of cytoplasm.

Lymphocytes are the second most common leucocytes in blood.

Lymphocytes make up about (20-30)% of White Blood Cells (WBCs).

There are two functionally distinct types: "T-lymphocytes" and "B-lymphocytes".

Lymphocytes play the central role in all immunological defence mechanisms of the body.
