However, the skin erythema and induration gradually progressed to become ulcers ( Figure 1B ). However, the patient's skin lesions continued to expand ( Figure 1C ). His skin lesions had a poor response to antibiotic treatment ( Figure 1D ). The ulcer then gradually closed and the wound healed one month later ( Figures 1E-G ).

case_images: The pathological report showed diffuse neutrophil infiltrations in the muscle and adipose tissue without lymphoma cells ( Figure 3 ).
case_images: Positron emission tomography/computed tomography examination. The tumor was in remission without radiographic recurrence. (1) There was no increase in lesion metabolism in the original mediastinal, neck, axillar, supraclavicular, and internal mammary areas; the Deauville score was 1, which was considered complete remission after treatment. (2) Left upper-arm and lower-left abdominal-wall skin and subcutaneous inflammatory changes.
