The article presents a case study on the pathergy in non-Hodgkin lymphoma.One of the diagnostic criteria for Behçet's disease is a positive pathergy test with rapid accumulation of neutrophils along the needle track as the initial reaction to sterile puncture. The lesions in the case patient were characteristic of pathergy, but the final diagnosis was T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The case in study is noted to be the first in presenting a pathergy reaction.
