* Caruncular tumor as the first sign of T-cell lymphoma relapse. |
- The lacrimal caruncle is a modified cutaneous tissue that contains hair follicles, accessory lacrimal glands, sweat glands, lobules of fat, and sebaceous glands. Due to the nature of tissue, a variety of lesions, both benign and malignant, could arise from this area. Lymphomas of the eye and its adnexa are frequently of B-cell lineage. We would like to report a rare and unique case of a patient presenting with a caruncular tumor of CD30-positive T-cell anaplastic large cell lymphoma (T-ALCL) origin, serving as the first, initial, sole sign of recurrence of previously treated cutaneous T-ALCL. We believe this to be the first such report in the literature. We aim to emphasize the importance of considering such a condition while formulating the differential diagnosis of caruncular tumour in patients with history of T-cell lymphoma and to characterize the clinical course of such a presentation. |
