Subcutaneous panniculitis‐like T‐cell lymphoma in a young girl presenting with periorbital edema and fever: A case report

It has a wide range of clinical presentations (such as periorbital swelling as in our case) and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, especially in children.
