Primary Cutaneous Diffuse Large B‑Cell Lymphoma, Leg Type: A Clinical Case

Abstract

Introduction. Primary Cutaneous Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, Leg Type it is a rare variant of skin lymphoma that has an aggressive course and a high risk of extracutaneous manifestations.The purpose of this work is to familiarize a wide range of specialists with the clinical manifestations of a rare disease — primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.Materials and methods. An interesting clinical case is presented and the medical history of a patient with B-cell lymphoma from the skin is analyzed.Results. A differential diagnosis of the disease was made. Based on the study of histological material, the final clinical diagnosis was established and further treatment tactics were determined.Discussion. The patient had spots and plaques on the lower extremities, the sole visible signs of the disease. These symptoms may suggest a positive prognosis and a gradual progression. Diagnostic measures should include gathering medical history, assessing the local condition, and carrying out an excision biopsy early in the examination process for an accurate and prompt diagnosisConclusion. Due to the rarity of this subtype of lymphoma and the limited number of domestic publications on the topic, a more detailed study and description of individual clinical cases can lead to a better understanding of the characteristics of the symptoms and the processes of pathological changes in cells, tissues, and organs. This could potentially lead to the development of more efficient methods for early diagnosis and timely treatment of the condition.
