Abstract
Nasal type natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma is rare but clinically aggressive, with a high rate of mortality. It is characterized by the expression of the NK-cell antigen CD56, frequent extranodal spreading and a strong association with the Epstein Barr virus. It commonly appears as deep nodules, or an infiltrative or ulcerative plaque. We report a case of nasal type NK/T-cell lymphoma, clinically showing subcutaneous panniculitis. It recurred after complete response to chemotherapy.
