Abstract
In this review, we present clinical features and detailed histopathologic, immunologic, and molecular information regarding primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma and primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type which together represent two of the three most common types of primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma recognized in the current WHO classification system.1,2 Overall, B-cell lymphomas represent 19-27% of primary cutaneous lymphomas in most large European and American studies3-6 and together, primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma and primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type account for approximately 2/3 to ¾ of these cases.5,7-11 Both subtypes can contain a high content of large B-lymphocytes, although most cases of primary cutaneous follicle center lymphomas exhibit a range in cell size and cytology. Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma, a less commonly-encountered EBV-negative primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma composed of large cells, will be more briefly discussed in this report as well.
