Occasionally, non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) occur simultaneously or subsequently to Hodgkin disease. We report on a case of a woman with Hodgkin lymphoma treated with ABVD, who developed 4 years later T-cell NHL with both nodal and extranodal involvement. Brentuximab vedotin could be an effective choice in treating metachronous T-cell NHL.
