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.
