A Case of Jessner’s Lymphocytic Infiltrate and Cutaneous B-Cell Follicular Lymphoma: Coexistence or Transformation?
Journal Title: International Journal of Dermatology and Clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Jessner’s lymphocytic infiltrate of the skin is a rare, benign cutaneous disorder. Difficulty arises in differentiating it from cutaneous lymphoma on histology, thus requiring immunophenotying, however the literature lacks reports demonstrating malignant transformation or dual pathology. We present a case of Jessner’s lymphocytic infiltrate who later presented with areas of cutaneous B-cell follicular lymphoma.
