Summary

INTRODUCTION

Primary cutaneous lymphomas show characteristic clinical and histopathological features and their biological behaviour is different from nodal lymphomas [1]. The majority of the lymphomas at different stages of development and which have not spread outside the skin are B-cell lymphomas. This type is more rarely observed than the primary T-cell lymphomas of the skin and comprise 20-25% of primary skin lymphomas. In this case report, a middle aged female patient with multiple, indurated, erythematous papules and nodules in the neck and back area and histopathologically diagnosed with primary cutaneous follicle centre cell lymphoma of the skin (PFMHL) is presented and the disease is discussed in the light of the current information
