Article Synopsis
- - Good's syndrome (GS) is a rare condition characterized by a thymoma that leads to both B-cell and T-cell immune deficiencies, resulting in increased vulnerability to infections.
- - GS shares features with Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID), including low antibody levels (hypogammaglobulinemia) and higher risk for bacterial and opportunistic infections.
- - A case study of a middle-aged woman with GS highlights the importance of recognizing thymoma as a potential precursor to immunodeficiency, and she showed improvement after receiving intravenous immunoglobulin treatment.
Background: Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) with skin involvement is reasonably rare. It typically occurs late in the course and is associated with a poor prognosis; however, it may also be indolent in some cases.
Case: We report a case of a 15-year-old previously healthy male with Hodgkin's lymphoma who presented with multiple lymphadenopathies of axilla and serpiginous ulcerative nodular lesions involving pectoral skin.
