| Abstract: | Cutaneous cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma is a rare variant of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, which shows immunoreactivity for CD56+. We report on an 83-year old woman with numerous skin infiltrates and nodules mainly on her face and trunk. Histopathologic criteria lead to the diagnosis of cutaneous cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma. Bexarotene was not tolerated because of cardiac insufficiency, but treatment with methotrexate (7.5 mg once weekly) led to prompt regression of all lesions. |
