Granulomatous slack skin disease in a child: the outcome.
Granulomatous slack skin syndrome is a rare clinical and pathologic disorder. Only 42 patients have been reported, one of whom we described in 1997--the only child so far reported. We now describe the evolution of this patient and the transformation of the disease into a peripheral T-cell lymphoma, and the complications resulting in the child's death.
