  • It typically affects elderly individuals, presenting as ulcerated skin nodules.

Observation:

  • A 93-year-old patient presented with ulcerated nodules on the right leg.
  • Histological and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed PCALCL of non-B, non-T origin.

Findings:

  • The patient received local radiotherapy for the PCALCL.
  • Progressive resolution of skin nodules was observed.
  • No relapse was noted at the 6-month follow-up.

Implications:

  • Local radiotherapy is an effective treatment for PCALCL.
