Gamma Delta T-Cell Receptor Lymphoma Causing Bilateral Pulmonary Embolism

Pulmonary embolism is a previously uncharacterized complication of primary cutaneous gamma delta T-cell lymphoma (PCGDTL), a type of cutaneous T-cell receptor lymphoma that accounts for less than 1% of non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas. We report the first documented case of bilateral pulmonary embolism in th...

description Pulmonary embolism is a previously uncharacterized complication of primary cutaneous gamma delta T-cell lymphoma (PCGDTL), a type of cutaneous T-cell receptor lymphoma that accounts for less than 1% of non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas. We report the first documented case of bilateral pulmonary embolism in the setting of PCGDTL in a 30-year-old woman who presented with acute dyspnea.
