ABSTRACT

Lymphocytoma cutis is a benign reactive lymphoid hyperplasia characterized by inflammatory lesions that mimic lymphomas. It is the prototype of cutaneous b-cell pseudolymphoma. Most cases are idiopathic, but they can be related with multiple stimuli, such as insect bites, tattoos, medications, injections, infections, and metals, among others. It can be a single red-violet nodule, but the lesions can be multiple and present as papules or plaques, affecting the face, upper trunk and arms. The diagnosis is mainly confirmed by histopathology and immunohistochemistry. Therapeutic options include systemic and infiltrated corticosteroids, radiation therapy, psoralen and ultraviolet a (puva), cryosurgery, hydroxychloroquine, surgery, and photodynamic therapy.
We describe a 60-years-old man with a clinical and histopathological diagnosis of lymphocytoma cutis with disseminated lesions. The adjacent cause was not found and the lesions disappeared after the biopsy was taken.
