HAVCR2 and primary cutaneous T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma: Here, we identify a novel germline compound heterozygous mutation of TIM-3 gene,c.245A>G (p.Tyr82Cys) and c.265C>T(p.Arg89Cys) variations in a single familial case with EBV-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma(NOS),accompanied HLH;we also detected Tyr82Cys germline mutation in TIM-3 gene in one sporadic patient with cutaneous T cell lymphoma.
