Figure 1
A: Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm presenting as an erythematous papule on the skin. B: Haematoxylin and eosin stain at ×200 magnification showing small-to-medium-sized neoplastic blasts with fine chromatin and scanty cytoplasm. C: Positron emission tomography-computed tomography scan showing multiple 18F-FDG-avid foci in the breast tissues and inguinal lymph node.

Figure 2
HRP-polymer-based immunohistochemistry showing strong CD45 and CD43, along with moderate CD56 expression. The majority of cells are expressing TdT. Counterstain: Meyer’s haematoxylin at magnification ×200.
