Simultaneous occurrence of a CD30 positive/ALK-negative high grade T-cell lymphoma and plasma cell myeloma: Report of a case

this case is of value because, to the best of our knowledge, it is the first reported case of a plasma cell neoplasm associated with an aggressive CD30-positive PTCL, NOS. Reporting such cases is important as it adds to the pool of rare cases of concomitant T-cell neoplasms and plasma cell myelomas, and might help in determining an etiological relationship, if any, between these two hematological malignancies.
