Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL) is characterized by atypical T-cells expressing the α/β T-cell receptor in the subcutaneous fat. Although it is usually indolent, some cases can show an aggressive course. It is usually a disease of the middle-aged, but can rarely affect children.
CASE REPORT: We describe the case of a 12-year-old male, previously healthy, who presented a dermatosis disseminated to the four segments consisting of vesicles, blisters, erythematous and hematonecrotic plaques, atrophic scars, associated with edema. The biopsy confirmed limited cutaneous panniculitic T-cell lymphoma with extensive epidermal necrosis.
CONCLUSIONS: We report the case of a SPTCL in a child. Although rare in this age group, the diagnosis should be considered in children who present similar conditions and who do not respond to treatment. Diagnosis is made on clinical suspicion and confirmed by histology. We discuss the challenges in its management and how timely diagnosis influences patient survival.
