Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL) is a rare subtype of peripheral T-cell lymphoma affecting younger patients and associated with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Recently, germline mutations in HAVCR2, encoding T-cell immunoglobulin mucin 3 (TIM3), were identified in patients.
