NCIt definition : A cytotoxic primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Recent studies suggest there are at
least two groups of subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphomas, each with distinct
histologic features, immunophenotypic profile, and prognosis. One group has an alpha/beta,
CD8 positive phenotype, involves only subcutaneous tissues, and usually has an indolent
clinical course. The second group has a gamma/delta phenotype, is CD8 negative, often
co-expresses CD56, is not confined to the subcutaneous tissues, and usually has a
poor prognosis. In the recent WHO-EORTC classification, the term subcutaneous panniculitis-like
T-cell lymphoma is reserved for cases with an alpha/beta, CD8 positive phenotype.
Cases with a gamma/delta phenotype are included in the group of cutaneous gamma/delta
T-cell lymphomas.;
