Abstract

Cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma accounts for ~6% of all cutaneous lymphomas. It is associated with poor prognosis, and solitary lesions are relatively rare. It often requires an aggressive approach with multi-agent chemotherapy and radiotherapy. It is important to recognize these cases in order to offer rapid and appropriate management.
