HIV positive primary skeletal muscle Peripheral T Cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified with complex rhabdomyolysis: A case report and literature review

Peripheral T cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) is a highly heterogeneous and invasive subtype of non-Hodgkin ' s lymphoma (NHL), which often occurs in lymph nodes, with a small number of lesions originating from the outside of the node. Extranodal invasion is more common in the liver, spleen, and bone marrow, and soft tissue invasion is rare, especially in skeletal muscle infiltration, which is rarely reported. This study reports on the diagnosis and treatment process of one HIV-positive primary skeletal muscle PTCL-NOS case and conducts a literature review to enhance clinical physicians ' understanding of this disease.
