Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas comprehend a group of lymphoproliferative disorders characterized by being monoclonal proliferations of B-cell primarily involving the skin. Despite being recognized as autonomous and distinct clinico-pathologic entities since the late 80s, their classification is still an ongoing matter of debate. At the moment, WHO classification recognizes three disorders: primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma, primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma and primary cutaneous diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (leg type). Primary cutaneous diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (other) has been used to define rare cases which show histologically an infiltrate with diffuse pattern composed by large b-cell, but not fitting with criteria for follicle center lymphoma nor for primary cutaneous diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (leg type). Aim of this review was to briefly describe all recognized and provisional entities included in the primary cutaneous b-cell lymphomas and to discuss recent acquisitions that may influence their future classifications.
KEY WORDS: Lymphoma B-cell; Lymphoma, large B-cell, diffuse; Lymphoma, non Hodgkin
