Unusual Presentation of T-cell non-Hodgkin Lymphoma with Multiple Skin Nodules
Journal Title: Iranian Journal of Blood and Cancer - Year 2012, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is very uncommon in infancy and skin as the primary site of involvement in Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is rarely encountered. We describe a 10-month-old infant with T-cell Non-Hodgkin lymphoma who presented with multiple skin nodules as the predominant feature of her disease. The clinical manifestations, treatment strategy and disease outcome are reviewed.
