Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma–Like Drug Eruption in an HIV-Positive Patient Taking Vancomycin and Rifampin
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Cutaneous T-cell pseudolymphoma (CTPL) is a benign reactive T-cell lymphoproliferative subtype of pseudolymphoma. Some variants of CTPL can resemble the plaques of mycosis fungoides (MF). The vast majority of drug-induced cases have been associated with anticonvulsants. There is only one report in the literature documenting a case of vancomycin-induced CTPL. METHODS: We report a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma-like eruption in a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patient recently started on vancomycin and rifampin. RESULTS: A skin biopsy showed several histologic features of MF with immunohistochemical and T-cell receptor gene rearrangement studies suggestive of CTPL. This atypical T-cell reaction mimicking MF completely resolved on cessation of rifampin followed by vancomycin. CONCLUSION: Considering drug-induced causes of MF-like histologic changes is crucial to prevent unnecessary treatment for MF.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
