Follicular Lymphoma with Widespread Skin Lesions and Chromosome 14;18 Translocation in the Skin
Vincent C. Ho, Ali Almofadhi, and Victor A. Tron
Background: We report a case of systemic follicular B-cell lymphoma presenting with widespread skin lesions.
Objective: The clinical features, histology, and treatment of primary and secondary cutaneous follicular lymphomas are discussed.
Conclusion: The demonstration of chromosome 14;18 translocation in the skin that is commonly found in primary, but rare in secondary, cutaneous follicular lymphoma can be helpful in confirming the diagnosis.
