Background: Cutaneous pseudolymphoma (CPL) refers to a group of benign, reactive processes that mimic cutaneous lymphoma and are associated with a variety of triggering immune stimuli, including arthropod bites, drugs, and foreign bodies. In children, most cases of CPL are due to a variant of Borreliosis that is specific to Eurasia. Cutaneous pseudolymphoma secondary to ear piercing has only been documented in adults. Case Reports: We present the clinical and pathological findings of cutaneous Bcell psuedolymphoma in two adolescent patients (11-year-old female and 15-year-old male) secondary to ear piercing. Conclusion: Our report expands the clinico-pathological spectrum of CPL associated with ear piercing by documenting its occurrence in children.
