Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma in Pregnancy. A Case Report.

BACKGROUND: Anaplastic large cell lymphoma is rarely diagnosed during pregnancy, and patients may be erroneously diagnosed with a dermatosis.

CASE: A 34-year-old female was diagnosed with pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy in the third trimester. She underwent elective repeat cesarean section with a postoperative course complicated by skin and gingival ulcers and persistent fever. Imaging revealed lung and brain nodules. Video-assisted thoracic surgery lung biopsy demonstrated anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

CONCLUSION: It is important to consider the diagnosis of anaplastic large cell lymphoma in a pregnant patient who presents with cutaneous symptoms.
