Extranodal NK / T-cell lymphoma with cutaneous involvement: ‘nasal’ vs. ‘nasal-type’ subgroups- a retrospective study of 18 patients

Abstract

Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphomas are extremely aggressive regardless of their subgroup. However, the 'nasal-type' NK/T-cell lymphoma was clinically less aggressive, more localized and had a better outcome compared with the other type. Cellulitis and ulcer were the major cutaneous manifestations.
