<unk>  T- leukemia, type<unk>  <unk><unk>  generally causes no signs or symptoms. Although<unk><unk>  has not been definitively linked with any specific health problems, scientists suspect that some affected people may later develop neurological problems such as: * Sensory neuropathies (conditions that affect the nerves that provide feeling) *Gait abnormalities *Bladder dysfunction * Mild cognitive impairment *Motor abnormalities (loss of or limited muscle control or movement, or limited mobility) *Erectile dysfunction *Mycosis fungoides Figure 1. Mycosis fungoides, a skin disease showing nodules and plaques composed of lymphocytes spread across the skin, has been associated with<unk> II infection Although evidence is limited, there may also be a link between<unk><unk>  and chronic lung infections (i.e. pneumonia and bronchitis), asthma and dermatitis. Clinical significance<unk> II has not been clearly linked to any disease, but has been associated with several cases of myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP)- like neurological disease and may cause chronic lung problems. An impact on platelet count has been observed. In the 1980s,<unk><unk>  was identified in a patient with an unidentified T cell lymphoproliferative disease that was described as having characteristics similar to the B cell disorder, hairy cell leukemia.<unk><unk>  was identified in a second patient with a T cell lymphoproliferative disease; this patient later developed hairy cell leukemia, but<unk><unk>  was not found in the hairy cell clones. The cause of hairy cell leukemia is not known, but it is no longer believed to be related to viral infections.
