Abstract

Extranodal natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma is a very aggressive malignant neoplasia with a poor prognosis. Herein we reported a case of NK/T cell lymphoma involving mediastinum. It was a 28-year-old Chinese male patient. The tumor cells were medium-sized, had irregularly folded nuclei, and inconspicuous or small nucleoli with coagulative necrosis. The tumor cells were positive for CD3ε, TIA-1, but negative for CD56. In situ hybridization revealed that tumor cells also expressed Epstein-Barr virus encoded RNA. To our knowledge, this is the first case of NK/T cell lymphoma involving mediastinum.
