| Abstract | The coexistence of chronic active hepatitis C with cryoglobulinemia and B-cell lymphoma has been presented in numerous case reports. However, the combination of these conditions with T-cell lymphoma has never been described before. We present the case of a patient who suffered chronic active hepatitis C, cryoglobulinaemia and B-cell lymphoma and was later complicated by cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). |
