Invasive squamous cell carcinoma with sporotrichoid metastasis in a patient with cutaneous T cell lymphoma treated with chronic extracorporeal photopheresis.

An 83-year-old Caucasian man with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma developed an aggressive squamous cell carcinoma of the left forearm, which recurred and metastasized after Mohs micrographic surgery and systemic chemotherapy with cis-platin and 5-fluorouracil. He was treated with extracorporeal photopheresis, radiation therapy, PUVA photochemotherapy, and interferon therapy for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Aggressive squamous cell carcinoma can occur in the setting of extracorporeal photopheresis.
