T-Cell Rich-B cell Lymphoma (TCRBCL) is separately defined by World Health Organisation(WHO), it is a subtype of Diffuse Large B cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). It is an aggressive disorder treated same as that of DLBCL. But some times it may not respond to therapy and it has poor prognosis. It requires careful histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for confirmation. We reported a rare case of subcutaneous T cell rich B cell lymphoma, which is confirmed by IHC which shows CD20 and CD3 marker positive.
