Abstract
- Cutaneous lymphadenoma (CL) is a rare, benign, epithelial neoplasm with a prominent lymphocyte infiltration of unknown histogenesis. Both pilosebaceous and eccrine origins have been suggested, and the current view is that CL is a variant of trichoblastoma with adamantinoid features. We report a case of cutaneous lymphadenoma which developed on the left postauricular area of a 46-year-old woman, plus a review of the related literature.
