Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) commonly presents as mycosis fungoides or Sezary syndrome, both having CD4 positivity. A subset of CTCL which lacks CD4 surface marker is classified as cutaneous γ and δ-T-cell lymphoma (CGD-TCL). Because of its rarity and inability to study large number of patients, the impact of immunophenotype on the clinical outcome of primary CTCL in patients is limited. We report a case of primary CGD-TCL in a 71-year-old male because of this rarity and to emphasize its aggressive nature.
皮肤T细胞淋巴瘤(CTCL)通常表现为蕈样肉芽肿或塞扎里综合征,两者均为CD4阳性。缺乏CD4表面标志物的CTCL子集被归类为皮肤γ和δ-T细胞淋巴瘤(CGD-TCL)。由于其罕见性以及无法研究大量患者,免疫表型对原发性CTCL患者临床结局的影响有限。鉴于这种罕见性,我们报告了一例71岁男性原发性CGD-TCL病例,以强调其侵袭性。
