Primary cutaneous lymphomas include those that affect only the skin at the time of diagnosis.

Clinical picture[edit | edit source]

Non-specific and specific changes appear. Eczema and pruritus are classified as non-specific. Specific changes appear in about 17% of patients with malignant lymphoma. They arise on the basis of infiltration by tumor cells. The most common manifestation is infiltrated deposits anywhere on the body or solitary red-purple bumps in the groin.
