Recurrent primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma in young female patient from Ethiopia: A Case Report Temesgen Assefa Ayele Abel Tenaw TessemaFisihatsion Tadesse<p>Primary Cutaneous Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (PC-ALCL) is a CD30+ lymphoproliferative disease of the skin characterized by single or focal nodules or plaques that ulcerate over time. Diagnosis of PC-ALCL relies heavily on clinicopathological correlations because of the potential morphological, clinical, and molecular overlap with other cutaneous CD30+ LPDs. Histopathologic features include diffuse nonepidermotropic infiltrates with an adherent layer of large undifferentiated CD30+ tumor cells.</p><p>The Exact incidence of PC-ALCL is not known partially because of the difficulty differentiating from the variety of CD30+ Lymphoproliferative disorders. Only a few cases are reported even from developed countries &amp; reports from developing countries are lacking.</p><p>We present a possible case of primary cutaneous Anaplastic Large cell Lymphoma in a 20 years old Female patient who presented with a 2 months history of lateral neck swelling.</p> Archives of Hematology Case Reports and Reviews - Peertechz Publications 2022-08-30 Case Report https://doi.org/10.17352/ahcrr.000040 en Copyright © Temesgen Assefa Ayele et al.
