| Core Tip |
The case highlights the need to include systemic and neoplastic diseases in differential diagnostics of any potentially benign perianal abscess complicated with recurrent hemorrhages. A 24-year-old Han Chinese female, initially diagnosed with perianal abscess, underwent the surgical incision and drainage. The symptoms and the results of imaging, laboratory analysis, and colonoscopic biopsy were non-specific. After recurrent, severe anal hemorrhages leading to hypovolemic shock and multiple surgeries, a final diagnosis of extranodal natural killer/T cell lymphoma was made based on the result of histopathological examination. The patient’s condition gradually deteriorated, and she died shortly after initiation of chemotherapy. |
