In this Case Study, the authors describe the unusually fulminant course of T-cell lymphoma in a 57-year-old Afro-Jamaican woman with an 8-year history of SLE, from the first presentation of symptoms to the patient's death shortly after the start of chemotherapy. The patient's ethnic and geographic background ultimately raised the suspicion of infection with an oncogenic virus.
