    Abstract:
    DUSP22 gene rearrangements are recurrent in systemic and cutaneous ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphomas, rarely encountered in other cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferations, and typically absent in other peripheral T-cell lymphomas. We report the case of a 51-year-old woman, with longstanding celiac disease and a rapidly enlarging leg ulcer, due to a DUSP22-rearranged CD30+ T-cell lymphoproliferation. Subsequent history revealed an intestinal enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL). Identical monoclonal TR gene rearrangements and mutations in STAT3 and JAK1 typical of EATL were present in the cutaneous and intestinal lesions. No DUSP22 rearrangement was detected in the patient's intestinal tumour, nor in 15 additional EATLs tested. These findings indicate that DUSP22 rearrangements are not entirely specific of ALCLs, may rarely occur as a secondary aberration in EATL, and expand the differential diagnosis of DUSP22-rearranged cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders.
