Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type is rare and shows clinical variability at presentation from plaque-like, nodules or ulcers. We present the case of a 46-year-old female patient who had a palate perforation; painless nodules and ulcers on the trunk as well as lower limbs. A diagnostic approach was performed to rule out deep mycoses, a skin biopsy was performed with immunohistochemistry, confirming for extranodal T-cell lymphoma, nasal type. Hematological treatment with chemotherapy was initiated, the survival was 4 weeks.
