Primary cutaneous EBV plus extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma of gamma/delta T-cell lineage in the posttransplantation setting

Posttransplantation primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (PT-CTCL) are a rare complication of sustained immunosuppression in the posttransplant setting. When present, PT-CTCLs are typically EBV- and exhibit features of mycosis fungoides/S & eacute;zary syndrome or CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders. We present a case of a 75-year-old individual who developed skin lesions 30 years after liver transplantation. Pathologic evaluation of the skin biopsy revealed involvement by a clonal, EBV+ T-cell population of gamma/delta lineage with no evidence of systemic disease. Comprehensive genomic profiling was performed, confirming focal one-copy loss of 6q23.3, altogether consistent with the extremely rare and unusual diagnosis of primary cutaneous EBV+ extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma of gamma/delta T-cell lineage in the posttransplantation setting.
