Not your typical morbilliform rash: Angioimmunoblastic T‐cell lymphoma

Abstract

Abstract Angioimmunoblastic T‐cell lymphoma (AITL) is a rare but aggressive lymphoma that commonly presents with skin involvement, often morphologically similar to viral or drug‐induced morbilliform eruptions. Morbilliform rashes with systemic symptoms of unclear etiology mandate a thorough workup; empiric corticosteroid therapy is best avoided and may delay diagnosis of underlying malignancy such as AITL.
