T-cell lymphoma describes several different types of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma which affect T cells.

T cells are involved in four classes of lymphoma. Together with lymphomas involving NK cells, these account for perhaps one in eight cases of NHL.^[1] The four classes are:

Extranodal T cell lymphoma
Cutaneous T cell lymphomas: Sézary syndrome and Mycosis fungoides
Anaplastic large cell lymphoma
Angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma

More information on various classification schemes is in the main lymphoma article.
