Title: | Palisading neutrophilic and granulomatous dermatitis as a presentation of Hodgkin lymphoma: A case and review | Authors: | Banney, L. Deen, J. Perry-Keene, J. |
Issue Date: | 2018 | Source: | Feb 45, (2), 2018, p. 167-170 | Pages: | 167-170 | Journal: | Journal of Cutaneous Pathology | Abstract: | Palisaded neutrophilic and granulomatous dermatitis (PNGD) is a histopathological diagnosis, characterized by a pattern of granulomatosis, which may be associated with leukocytoclastic vasculitis. PNGD most commonly occurs in association with systemic inflammatory disorders, typically autoimmune conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythromatosus. There are very rare reports of PNGD in patients with lymphoma. We report the case of a 53-year-old female with an erythematous, papular eruption occurring in association with Hodgkin lymphoma. Histopathological evaluation of the rash confirmed PNGD. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of PNGD occurring in association with Hodgkin lymphoma. Although extremely rare, underlying malignancy should be considered in patients with PNGD, particularly in individuals with constitutional symptoms and the absence of an obvious inflammatory etiology.Deen, Jacqueline Banney, Leith Perry-Keene, JoannaDeen, Jacqueline/0000-0002-8935-6673 | DOI: | 10.1111/cup.13076 | Resources: | Type: | Article |
