Globally, peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) constitute about 12% of all non-Hodgkin
lymphomas, of which the unspecified category is the most common subtype (30%). Mostly,
the unspecified category shows a diffuse pattern of involvement in the lymph nodes.
However, rarely, they may show a follicular/nodular pattern mimicking a follicular lymphoma.
We report a case of a follicular variant of PTCL, not otherwise specified. This case displayed
a striking nodular/follicular pattern with an admixture of small (centrocyte-like) and large …

Peripheral T‐cell lymphoma (PTCL) with a follicular growth pattern is very rare. Herein, a
case of follicular variant of PTCL in a 50‐year‐old man who complained of tonsillar and
generalized lymph node swelling is reported. The resected tonsil revealed a vague nodular
growth pattern of atypical cells, medium to large in size, with abundant pale cytoplasm. The
lymphoma cells were CD3+ CD4+ CD5+ CD8‐CD10+ CD56‐CD57‐BCL6+ PD‐1+
CXCL13+ and were associated with a meshwork of CD21+ follicular dendritic cells …
