N2 - A 65-year-old male with long-standing acral "eczema" and patches of mycosis fungoides suddenly developed a transformed, necrotizing ulcerative cutaneous T-cell lymphoma manifesting as necrotic lesions of the toe and lip. The tumor had brown and/or black eschars on the surface and grew multiple opportunistic organisms. Markers CD3, Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA, and T-cell receptor γ gene rearrangement were positive, with CD4, 8, 30, 56, and TIA-1 negative. In spite of initial response to radiation, the patient succumbed to infection within 3 months.
