The case reported herein documents the occurrence of cutaneous involvement in a patient with a long history of Hodgkin's disease. Despite severe pruritus and intermittent exacerbations of a multitude of specific and nonspecific skin lesions, associated with his underlying malignancy, the patient has done remarkably well for more than seven years. This demonstrates quite well that cutaneous involvement in Hodgkin's disease is not necessarily an ominous prognostic indicator. More intensive systemic chemotherapy and/or topical therapy is frequently effective in such patients. |
