Abstract
Pediatric cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with γδ immunophenotype is extremely rare. Only a few cases of γδ T-cell neoplasm have been reported in the literature, and therefore little is known whether γδ T-cell neoplasms in children are distinct from their adult counterparts with respect to the clinicopathological presentation, behavior, and prognosis. In this study, we demonstrate three unique pediatric cutaneous T-cell neoplasm and mimics with increased γδ T cells. All cases showed an indolent clinical course.
