The normal range of lymphocytes in pleural fluid is 2% to 11%.
According to a study, the differential cell counts in pleural fluid can vary, but typically include the following ranges:
- Mesothelial cells: 9% to 70%
- Macrophages: 28% to 70%
- Lymphocytes: 2% to 11%
- Polymorphonuclear leukocytes: 0% to 2%
The total cell counts observed ranged from 1,500 to 2,450/μl (microliters) (reference from 13-Oct-1999). It's important to note that these values are approximate and can differ based on the individual's clinical condition and the methods used for analysis.
