A Case of an Unusually Aggressive Cutaneous Anaplastic Large T-Cell Lymphoma in a Young Patient
Journal Title: International Journal of Cancer Studies & Research (IJCR) - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Primary Cutaneous Anaplastic Large‑cell Lymphoma (PC‑ALCL) is the second most common cutaneous T‑cell Lym‑ phoma. PCALCL is composed of large cells with an anaplastic, pleomorphic, or immunoblastic cytomorphology, and expression of the CD30 antigen by the majority (>75%) of tumor cells .Wehere by report a case of unusually aggressive PC‑ALCL in a young adult.
