Abstract
|
|
|
|
Angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL), which accounts for only 1~2% of non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas, is commonly accompanied by skin lesions. Those associated with AITL include erythematous plaques, nodules or rashes. Histological examination of most lesions shows infiltration by malignant lymphocytes. Ichthyosis is a generalized skin disease characterized by hyperkeratosis, in which the skin acquires an appearance resembling fish scales. Some cases may be acquired, but most have a genetic basis. We report a case of AITL with associated ichthyosis that is considered to be inherited.
