Abstract

Abstract We present a case of a relapse of HL revealed by a skin involvement. A biopsy of the skin lesion showed infiltration by a mixed cellularity and Reed–Sternberg cells. The immunoreactivity was positive for CD30 and CD15. The patient was undergoing ICE protocol with good improvement after three cycles.
