RESUMO
Primary cutaneous CD8+ aggressive epidermotropic cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma is a rare variety of cutaneous lymphoma. This subtype has an aggressive and quickly progressive clinical course with a survival time of 32 months from the commencement of skin lesions. This article describes a probable case of primary cutaneous CD8+ aggressive epidermotropic cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma in a 63-year-old female, which manifested as diffuse non-pruritic erythematous plaques and nodules. The diagnosis of this possible entity was aided by the histopathological and immunohistochemical findings, while immunohistochemistry for T-cell receptor (TCR) gamma/delta could not be done.
