Abstract
Adult cutaneous T-cell lymphoma is an uncommon malignancy with poor prognosis and is usually seen in association with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1. We present the case of a 25-year-old female who gave a history of extensive whole-body polypoidal cutaneous and bilateral orbital and breast swellings. Biopsy was suggestive of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and the patient was evaluated with 18F-labeled fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography for initial staging of the disease.
