ABSTRACT
We report a case of cutaneous B cell lymphoma in a 65-year-old male who had several bizarre shaped erythematous to brownish plaques on the both shins for 2 months. An abdominal CT scan revealed gastrohepatic ligament, retroperitoneal, mesenteric and bilateral external iliac lymphadenopathies. Histologic examinations revealed diffuse dense infiltration of the large atypical cells with vesicular nucleus and prominent nucleoli in the entire dermis. They showed a positive reaction to the LCA, CD20 and kappa light chain in the immunohistochemical study, suggesting that these neoplastic lymphoid cells are B cell lineage. We treated him with COPBLAM-V regimen. In the course of treatment, new skin lesions developed on both upper arms and herpes zoster on the left thigh. So we changed the regimen into IMVP-16. No relapses have been found up to the present date for 9 months.
