ABSTRACT
Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas other than mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome are heterogeneous; they deseve further scientific attention about their natural history and effective therapy. Pleomorphic T-cell lymphoma is a recently defined lymphoma type that can occur in the skin. We report the case of a man in whom such a tumor manifested itself with multiple subcutaneous lesions. The skin biopsy specimen showed diffuse dermal infiltration of atypical lymphocytes with highly pleomorphic nuclei. Testing for the antibody against HTLV-1 was negative and immunohistochemical staiiiing was compatible with pleomorphic T-cell lymphoma.
