Abstract
- We herein present a rare case of a 42-year-old man with primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma(MZL) of the B-cell type on his shin. MZL is known to be the cutaneous counterpart of MALT(mucosa-associated lymphatic tissue) lymphoma. Histopathologically, MZL is characterized by multi-nodular infiltrates of centrocyte-like and centroblast-like marginal cells with bottom-heavy patterns, lymphoplasmacytoid differentiation, typical distribution of tumor cells in the marginal zone and follicular colonization by tumor cells. This B-cell lymphoma of a benign grade should be differentiated from mantle cell lymphoma and follicular center cell lymphoma.
