Typically, the lymphoma cells rim the adipocytes and are characterized by a CD8 + cytotoxic phenotype. We report 2 cases of SPTCL where the first biopsies only showed subcutaneous fat necrosis without any lymphoma cell visible.

- - This study analyzed severe blistering skin reactions caused by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in 32 patients, emphasizing that such reactions, although rare, can be life-threatening and are often misdiagnosed as epidermal necrolysis (EN).
- - The research found that symptoms like fever, ocular involvement, and extensive skin detachment were more common in patients diagnosed with EN compared to those with lichenoid dermatosis (LD) or unclassified dermatosis (UD), highlighting the need for careful diagnostic review.
- - Treatment usually involved corticosteroids, and 25% of patients died during the acute phase; however, most did not restart the ICI, suggesting a potential issue with management approaches that need further consensus and clarity
