Abstract

Cutaneous immunocytoma are low-grade B-cell lymphomas, which affect the skin either primarily or secondarily. Primary cutaneous immunocytomas usually present with one or a small number of lesions, mainly in the extremities. They generally remain confined to the skin. Histologically, there are polymorphous infiltrates of cells, in which the presence of monoclonal plasma cells is characteristic. We describe a case of cutaneous immunocytoma with secondary spread to the gastrointestinal tract.
