2014
El PCLBCL-LT es un trastorno linfoproliferativo infrecuente de mal pronostico, que afecta principalmente ancianos con fuerte predominio en mujeres, caracterizado por nodulos o tumores rojo azulados, solitarios o agrupados en las piernas. El examen histopatologico presenta celulas grandes como centroblastos e inmunoblastos, con fenotipo para linaje B y fuerte expresion para Bcl-2. El tratamiento para lesiones solitarias o poco numerosas consiste en radioterapia, y en casos de compromiso multifocal poliquimioterapia. Comunicamos un caso de una paciente de 74 anos con PCLBCL-LT, con antecedente de leucemia linfocitica cronica (LLC), que consulto por tumores eritematosos de rapida evolucion en las piernas y el brazo izquierdo. Se planteo como diagnostico un linfoma cutaneo primario de celulas B, asi como tambien se establecio diagnostico diferencial con el sindrome de Richter, linfomas cutaneos CD 30 + y leucemia cutis.

Histopathologic examination has typically large cells as centroblasts and immunoblasts, with B-lineage phenotype and strong expression for Bcl-2. Treatment for solitary lesions or few in number is radiation therapy, and in multifocal cases chemotherapy. We reported a 74 year old patient with PCLBCL-LT, with a history of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), consulting for rapidly developing erythematous tumors in the legs and left arm. Diagnosis is proposed as primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma, as well as establishing a differential diagnosis with Richter’s syndrome, CD30+ cutaneous lymphomas and leukemia cutis.
