We report a case of an 88‐year‐old woman with a decalvant, erythematous, ulcerated tumor extending from the right temporal to occipital region. Histopathological analysis revealed a dense infiltration of medium‐to‐large‐sized atypical cells throughout the entire dermis. The result of immunohistochemical analysis showed that the infiltrating T cells expressed programmed death‐1 (PD‐1), Bcl‐6 and CXCL13. Flow cytometry analysis showed that CD4+ PD‐1hi T cells also expressed CD10, inducible T‐cell co‐stimulator and CXCR5. On the basis of the clinical appearance and the histopathological findings, we diagnosed the patient with primary cutaneous peripheral T‐cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified. Recently, the concept of primary cutaneous follicular helper T (TFH)‐cell lymphoma was proposed, and in this case, tumor cells clearly expressed TFH‐cell markers. Therefore, we considered this case to be a variant of the entity. Although this entity is still provisional, this case supports the new concept. 相似文献

The precise classification and characterization of primary cutaneous gamma‐delta T‐cell lymphoma (PCGD‐TCL) has been hindered by clinical and morphologic features that overlap with other lymphomas, especially subcutaneous panniculitis‐like T cell lymphoma (SPTCL). The recent World Health Organization/European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (WHO/EORTC) classification distinguishes the more aggressive PCGD‐TCL from the usually indolent SPTCL, however. We report a 30‐year‐old woman with an indurated violaceous plaque on the left cheek that had been present for several years. Biopsies showed a dense lymphocytic infiltrate involving the subcutis and dermis that consisted mostly of small and medium‐sized lymphocytes, some with irregular nuclear contours and dense chromatin. These cells were positive for TIA‐1, TCR‐gamma and CD8, but negative for beta‐F1 and granzyme‐B. Staging with positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET/CT), CBC and bone marrow with flow cytometry identified lymphadenopathy as well as blood and marrow involvement by an abnormal TCRgd‐positive T‐cell proliferation (Ann Arbor Stage IV). The patient's history of a long‐standing lesion in this case is unusual, in that gamma‐delta T‐cell lymphomas are typically rapidly progressive neoplasms. As such, it raises the possibility of ‘transformation’ of a long‐standing inflammatory process into an overt lymphoma. 相似文献

Organ transplant recipients receiving immunosuppression have an increased risk of developing post‐transplant lymphoproliferative diseases (PTLDs). Traditionally, PTLDs refer to Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV)‐induced B‐cell lymphoma. However, post‐transplant T‐cell lymphoma may also occur and tends to have a poorer response to reduced immunosuppressive therapy. As such, additional therapy is often needed for post‐transplant T‐cell lymphoma, including post‐transplant cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (PT‐CTCL). We present only the third case of PT‐CTCL occurring after liver transplantation. The patient was diagnosed with stage IB mycosis fungoides (MF). His lesions were refractory to multiple skin‐directed therapies, and so he was given oral bexarotene 150 mg daily and his oral tacrolimus dose was decreased to 2 mg daily. Remarkably, his MF patches have demonstrated a complete response to oral bexarotene 75 mg daily without recurrence over 11 years of follow‐up. He developed hypertriglyceridemia with bexarotene 150 mg, so his dose was decreased to 75 mg, without loss of response. Our report is the second to describe PT‐CTCL demonstrating a long‐term complete response to oral bexarotene. Given its anti‐carcinogenic properties and favorable toxicity profile, oral bexarotene represents an appealing treatment option for PT‐CTCL refractory to skin‐directed therapies. 相似文献

Immunological functions decline with age. Because MS/SzS predominately affects the elderly, it is important to distinguish age‐related from cancer‐specific changes. Also, MF and SzS are malignancies of CD4+ T‐lymphocytes, further compromising an immune state of the patients. The objectives of this study were to distinguish disease‐specific immunological deterioration by performing comparative age ‐ matched Luminex multiplex assessment of 34 serum biomarkers between patients with MF/SzS, HIV‐infected individuals and normal controls. Controlling for age, expression level appears to significantly differ between patients with MF/SzS and controls for the following biomarkers: G‐CSF, IL‐5, MIP‐1β, TNF‐α, VEGF, EOTAXIN, IL‐8, IL‐12, IL‐2R, IP10, MCP‐1, MIG, TNFR1 and TNFR2 (P < 0.05), while others showed normal age‐related changes. Interestingly, cluster analysis placed MF/SzS profiles closer to HIV. This further underscores an immunologically compromised state of patients with MF/SzS and suggests its potential self‐perpetuating role in disease progression. 相似文献

Composite lymphoma (CL) is a rare disease defined by the occurrence of two distinct lymphomas within a single tissue at the same time. We present the case of an 89‐year‐old male with a clinical history of immunoglobulin M monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. The patient presented cutaneous eruption of nodules on the right bottom and arm. An excisional biopsy revealed cutaneous infiltration composed of two components. The first one consisted of large B‐cells with CD20+/MUM1+/BCL2+ phenotype whereas the second one involved the subcutaneous fat in a panniculitic manner, and was CD3+/CD8+/granzyme B+/TCRβF1+. The final diagnosis was CL of primary cutaneous large B‐cell lymphoma‐leg type (PCLBCL‐leg type) and subcutaneous panniculitis‐like T‐cell lymphoma (SPTCL). We report and characterize for the first time coexistent PCLBCL‐leg type and SPTCL in a patient. 相似文献

We retrospectively reviewed data pertaining to five patients with cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL) who had received hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) between 2004 and 2015 at Kurume University Hospital, along with their clinical data until March 2016. For patients with advanced CTCL eligible for HSCT, autologous HSCT was performed when they responded well to chemotherapy, and allogeneic HSCT was selected for patients with advanced mycosis fungoides (MF)/Sézary syndrome (SS) and CTCL other than MF/SS with poor chemosensitivity. Two patients (primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma and primary cutaneous CD8+ aggressive epidermotropic cytotoxic T‐cell lymphoma) who responded well to chemotherapy received autologous HSCT: one patient was alive in partial remission and the other died due to therapy‐related acute myeloid leukemia without disease relapse. In the remaining three patients with MF or SS, allogeneic HSCT was performed. Although one patient with MF died due to disease progression, the remaining two patients were alive in complete remission. Although there were two deaths in this study, the outcomes were considered satisfactory. 相似文献

Please cite this paper as: A novel xenograft model of cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma. Experimental Dermatology 2010; 19 : 1096–1102. Abstract: Cutaneous T‐cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are characterized by accumulation of malignant T cells in the skin. Early disease resembles benign skin disorders but during disease progression cutaneous tumors develop, and eventually the malignant T cells can spread to lymph nodes and internal organs. However, because of the lack of suitable animal models, little is known about the mechanisms driving CTCL development and progression in vivo. Here, we describe a novel xenograft model of tumor stage CTCL, where malignant T cells (MyLa2059) are transplanted to NOD/SCID‐B2m?/? (NOD.Cg‐Prkdcscid B2mtm1Unc/J) mice. Subcutaneous transplantation of the malignant T cells led to rapid tumor formation in 43 of 48 transplantations, whereas transplantation of non‐malignant T cells isolated from the same donor did not result in tumor development. Importantly, the tumor growth was significantly suppressed in mice treated with vorinostat when compared to mice treated with vehicle. Furthermore, in most mice the tumors displayed subcutaneous and/or lymphatic dissemination. Histological, immunohistochemical and flow cytometric analyses confirmed that both tumors at the inoculation site, as well as distant subcutaneous and lymphatic tumors, originated from the transplanted malignant T cells. In conclusion, we describe a novel mouse model of tumor stage CTCL for future studies of disease dissemination and preclinical evaluations of new therapeutic strategies. 相似文献

Subcutaneous panniculitis‐like T‐cell lymphoma (SPTCL) is an uncommon non‐Hodgkins primary cutaneous lymphoma that typically presents as subcutaneous nodules on the extremities or trunk. Here, we report an unusual case of systemic panniculitic T‐cell lymphoma with predominantly mesenteric extra‐cutaneous involvement and an aggressive clinical course with histopathologic and immunophenotypic features that mimic SPTCL. This case serves to expand the body of literature regarding systemic SPTCL‐like disorders with prominent extra‐cutaneous involvement. 相似文献

We present a case of a widespread fixed drug eruption histologically mimicking CD8 positive cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL). CTCL has several potential histological and clinical mimics, and accurate diagnosis relies on a combination of clinicopathological correlation and molecular studies. We add generalized fixed drug eruption to the list of possible CTCL mimics. 相似文献

Primary cutaneous acral CD8+ T‐cell lymphoma (TCL) is a rare, distinct type of cutaneous TCL. Despite its worrisome histological appearance it has a benign clinical course. It is therefore important to recognize this as a distinct entity from other more aggressive CD8+ lymphomas, for which the management is very different. 相似文献

Cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL) is the most common lymphoma of the skin. Recent reports suggest that AHI1 is overexpressed in a subset of CTCL‐derived cell lines, where it downregulates the expression of CDKN1C tumor suppressor gene. In the current work, we test the expression of these genes in 60 patients with Mycosis Fungoides and Sezary Syndrome by RT‐PCR and correlate our findings with 6 years of clinical follow‐up. These findings reveal that AHI1 and CDKN1C exhibit opposite expression patterns, where AHI1 is expressed in poor and intermediate prognosis patients, while CDKN1C is expressed in favourable prognosis patients. Kaplan–Meier analysis documents that downregulation of CDKN1C is associated with poor disease outcome in patients with CTCL, while upregulation of AHI1 shows a weak association with aggressive disease course. 相似文献

Detection of a dominant T‐cell clone by T‐cell receptor (TCR) gene rearrangement analysis is often essential for the diagnosis of cutaneous T‐cell lymphomas (CTCL). The occurrence of T‐cell clones in addition to the diagnostic T‐cell clone during the course of CTCL has been reported, but the data of these studies have been contradictory. We retrospectively evaluated the data of 114 lesional skin biopsies from 26 patients with Mycosis fungoides and two patients with primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma, which were analysed with the standardized Biomed‐2 PCR for the TCRγ and TCRβ locus. A dominant T‐cell clone was repetitively detected in 93% (26/28) of patients. Additional T‐cell clones appeared temporarily in 39% (11/28) of patients. Correlation with the clinical data did not show an association of the presence of additional T‐cell clones with age, number of treatments, progression of disease or survival. Our findings demonstrate that a persistent T‐cell clone, most likely the disease causing tumor clone, is detectable in almost all CTCL patients. In addition, transiently appearing T‐cell clones frequently occur during the course of disease. The biological relevance of these additional clones has still to be determined. However, it is important to take the possibility of additional T‐cell clones into account for diagnostic analyses. 相似文献

Cutaneous gamma‐delta T‐cell lymphoma (γδTCL) is a rare malignancy that typically displays an aggressive clinical course. We present an unusual case of a 57‐year‐old woman with a 3‐year history of lower extremity nodules. Histopathologic, immunophenotypic and molecular genetic studies revealed a clonal, predominantly pannicular gamma‐delta T‐cell infiltrate, leading to a diagnosis of cutaneous γδTCL. The clinical course was characterized by rapid improvement within months of starting systemic corticosteroids, with relapse in ulcerations but no new lesions more than 3 years after onset of disease. Our case and seven previously reported patients with indolent and relatively localized cutaneous γδTCL provide evidence that not all cases of this entity carry a poor prognosis. This indolent subset adds complexity to treatment of cutaneous γδTCL. 相似文献

Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T‐cell lymphoma (MEITL), also known as Type II enteropathy‐associated T‐cell lymphoma (EATL), is an aggressive peripheral T‐cell lymphoma. EATL generally presents in adults with gastrointestinal symptoms. Skin involvement is very rare, found only in approximately five percent of patients. The authors report a 67‐year‐old Asian male who presented with chronic diarrhea and developed erythema multiforme‐like cutaneous lesions. A skin biopsy revealed extensive pagetoid spread of atypical lymphocytes in the epidermis. The results of an immunohistochemistry test led to a diagnosis of MEITL. This report points to the need for dermatologists and dermatopathologists to consider a possible diagnosis of MEITL when encountering similar cases. 相似文献

Only 40 cases of primary cutaneous gamma/delta T‐cell lymphoma (GD‐TCL) have been described. GD‐TCL was included as a provisional entity in the WHO‐EORTC classification of cutaneous lymphomas in 2005. GD‐TCL often failed to respond to polychemotherapy and radiation therapy and have a poor prognosis with a mean survival of only 15 months. We present a patient treated with surgery, immunomodulatory therapy, and polychemotherapy. He then received hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and has been in complete remission since. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation appears to be a promising therapeutic option for aggressive and generally fatal lymphomas like GD‐TCL. 相似文献
