A 68-year-old woman with a history of discoid lupus erythematosus presented with multiple subcutaneous nodules on the breast and upper extremities. An incisional biopsy was performed due to concern for subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL). Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed a dense lymphoid infiltrate (panel A: original magnification ×40; panel C: original magnification ×400) rimming adipocytes, with scattered plasma cells involving the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue (panel B:

Mashup Score: 53ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma, Hodgkin-like pattern with unexplained fever - 4 month(s) ago
A 71-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of fever of unknown origin. No lymphadenopathy, except for mild submandibular lymph node enlargement, was detected on computed tomography (panel A, arrowheads) and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography. Biopsies of the submandibular lymph node revealed lymphoid nodules composed of scattered large cells with irregular nuclei surrounded by fibrotic tissue (panel B: hematoxylin and eosin stain, original magnification ×40; panel C: hematoxylin
