1 Doubly Dangerous: Extranodal NK/T-Cell Lymphoma
Shih-Jyun Yang, MD, Chau Yee Ng, MD, Chih-Hsun Yang, MD, Pei-Hsuan Lu, MD  The American Journal of Medicine  Volume 130, Issue 6, Pages (June 2017) DOI: /j.amjmed Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 The clinical manifestations of the disease were evident. (A) The patient had symmetrical violaceous swelling on both cheeks. Deep-seated induration occurred on palpation.

3 Figure 2 Histopathological examination of a skin biopsy specimen was essential to the diagnosis. (A) Dense, lymphocytic infiltrates were deep in the subcutis (hematoxylin and eosin, 20×). (B) Basal cell vacuolation, marked dermal edema, and diffuse hemorrhage were seen in the superficial dermis (hematoxylin and eosin, 100×). (C) Adipocytes were rimmed by medium-sized, atypical lymphoid cells (hematoxylin and eosin, 400×). (D) Epstein-Barr encoding region or EBER in situ hybridization revealed the Epstein-Barr virus in atypical lymphoid cells (400×).
