ABSTRACT

We report a case of cutaneous plasmacytosis in an 80 years old male patient, which went undiagnosed due to the rareness of the disease. Cutaneous plasmacytosis is a rare lymphoplasmacytic disorder, whose origin is not known with certainty, consisting of the triad of skin lesions, superficial lymphadenopathy and polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia, clinically it can manifest with different types of lesions such as infiltrated reddish brown macules, plaques and flat tumors.
