Aggressive Primary Cutaneous Anaplastic T-Cell Lymphoma Successfully Treated with Autologous Stem Cell Transplant and Brentuximab Vedotin Consolidation: Case Report and Review of the Literature

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: Primary cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders include primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (pcALCL) and lymphomatoid papulosis. The prognosis of the disease is usually excellent but, in a minority of cases, it presents with extracutaneous involvement and aggressive behavior. The case we present-relapsed after surgical excision, immunosuppressive therapy, and conventional chemotherapy-is the first one treated with Autologous Stem Cell transplant followed by Brentuximab Vedotin consolidation, a scheme already used for high risk Hodgkin Lymphoma.
