Abstract
- Cutaneous pseudolymphomas (CPL) is a group of benign, reactive, and polyclonal lymphoproliferative dermatoses that simulate cutaneous lymphomas (CL) clinically and histologically. Based on the predominating component of lymphocytic infiltrate, CPL can be divided into cutaneous B‐cell pseudolymphomas (CBPL), cutaneous T‐cell pseudolymphomas (CTPL), mixed (T‐/B‐cell) pseudolymphomas, CD30‐positive pseudolymphomas, and non‐classifiable pseudolymphomas. Most patients with localized nodular CBPL present with a solitary nodule. However, few patients develop multiple skin lesions, rarely in generalized forms. Here we describe a rare case of multiple nodular CBPL on both sides of the patient's neck, which was treated successfully with intramuscular injection of compound betamethasone, oral methotrexate, and hydroxychloroquine for 4 months. No recurrence was observed in the patient at the one‐year follow‐up. This combined treatment may be a promising treatment choice for multiple nodular CBPL. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
