A 75-year-old woman was admitted because of pain and numbness in the extremities and trunk. She subsequently suffered from lymphadenopathy and spiky fever. The immunohistochemical analysis of the biopsied lymph nodes and sural nerve and electrophysiological examination supported a diagnosis of angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy-like T cell lymphoma with polyneuropathy. The infiltrating lymphoma cells of the sural nerve and lymph node shared the same phenotype (CD45RO, CD3, CD30 positive). An increased expression of HLA-DR antigen was observed in endothelial and Schwann cells. Chemotherapy with CHOP-Bleomycin markedly relieved her pain. These findings suggest that a direct lymphocytic infiltration in the nerve may be associated with neuropathy in this case.
