Abstract

A man in his 30s presented with several months of non-bloody diarrhoea and nausea along with conjunctivitis, diffuse ichthyosis and cellulitis in the setting of progressive neck swelling. He was ultimately diagnosed with nodular sclerosing Hodgkin's lymphoma after undergoing a broad infectious, rheumatological and neoplastic workup. This represents a rare presentation of classic Hodgkin's lymphoma and demonstrates the known alteration of cellular immunity in Hodgkin's lymphoma alongside manifestations of the profound inflammatory state associated with the disease. The patient was initiated on chemotherapy and many of his symptoms resolved. Hodgkin's lymphoma may present as a multisystemic cascade of symptoms and should be high on the differential diagnosis for a patient with lymphadenopathy and associated infectious, gastrointestinal and cutaneous symptoms.
