Abstract

Panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma is a very uncommon subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. In this case report, we describe the morphological (CT and MRI) and functional ((18)F-FDG-PET and bone scan) imaging findings in a 35-year-old patient who suffered from slowly progressing multiple subcutaneous lesions caused by this rare disease.
