A rare dendritic cell tumor characterized by a neoplasm composed of spindle to ovoid cells with phenotypic features similar to those of interdigitating dendritic cells. Solitary lymph node involvement is common, although extranodal localization (in particular skin and soft tissue) has also been reported. Patients usually present with an asymptomatic mass, sometimes with systemic symptoms such as fatigue, fever, and night sweats. Generalized lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, or hepatomegaly may be seen in rare cases. The clinical course is generally aggressive.
