Abstract: | We report the first case of a pseudolymphomatous skin reaction precipitated by flucloxacillin. Skin histology was suggestive of a cutaneous lymphoma, and DNA analysis by single stranded conformational polymorphism (SSCP) demonstrated T-cell receptor gamma gene monoclonality. Withdrawal of flucloxacillin led to immediate clinical improvement and gradual resolution of skin rash and lymph nodes. |
