Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL) is a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by subcutaneous nodules, indurated plaques, erythema, and cellular infiltrates in the subcutaneous fat. Biopsies show neoplastic cells expressing cytotoxic T-cell markers and displaying moderate cytologic atypia while sparing the dermis and epidermis and showing variable degrees of necrosis, hemorrhage, and inflammatory changes. We describe a pediatric case of SPTCL in a 6-year-old boy, presenting with an unusual targetoid plaque and systemic symptoms, who showed significant improvement on systemic immunosuppressants without chemotherapy.

Biopsy of thigh lesion ultimately demonstrated subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma. In a rare neoplasm of cytotoxic T-cells, subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma presents with subcutaneous nodules in all age groups including children.

Article Synopsis
  • Cutaneous metastases from gastric carcinoma, specifically signet-ring cell (SRC) type, are rare but can indicate advanced disease or recurrence and may present as asymptomatic skin nodules that are easily misdiagnosed.
  • Diagnosis relies on histopathological examination and specific staining techniques to confirm SRC tumors, which tend to spread aggressively and are resistant to chemotherapy.
  • The presence of skin metastases is associated with a poor prognosis and necessitates a collaborative approach among healthcare providers for early detection and better patient outcomes.
