Abstract

A 78-year-old woman with nasal type NK/T-cell lymphoma is reported. She developed dark red nodule on her left arm. A biopsy specimen taken from her left arm showed a diffuse infiltration of tumor cells in the dermis and epidermotropism was observed. Tumor cells were observed to be atypical medium or large-sized cells with convoluted nuclei. This case was positive for CD56, CD2, CD3. EBV was found in most tumor cells. She was treated with radiotherapy and thereafter her skin lesion significantly improved.
