Abstract
In the 1980s, immunohistochemistry and clonality analyses became instrumental in the recognition and definition of new types of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) and cutaneous B-cell lymphoma (CBCL) and the development of new classifications. By accepting loss of pan-T-cell antigens and clonal T-cell receptor gene rearrangements as important criteria to differentiate between benign and malignant T-cell proliferations, and monotypic immunoglobulin light-chain expression and clonal immunoglobulin gene rearrangements as crucial criteria to distinguish between benign and malignant B-cell proliferations, many cases, until then diagnosed as cutaneous lymphoid hyperplasia or pseudolymphoma, were reclassified as primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium T-cell lymphoma (PCSM-TCL) or primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL), respectively. However, in recent years there is growing awareness that neither these immunohistochemical criteria nor demonstration of T-cell or B-cell clonality is specific for malignant lymphomas. In addition, many studies have reported that these low-grade malignant CTCL and CBCL have an indolent clinical behavior and an excellent prognosis with disease-specific survival rates of or close to 100%. As a result, recent classifications have downgraded several low-grade malignant cutaneous lymphomas to lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD). Both the 5th edition of the WHO classification (2022) and the 2022 International Consensus Classification (ICC) of mature lymphoid neoplasms reclassified PCSM-TCL as primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium T-cell LPD and primary cutaneous acral CD8+ T-cell lymphoma as primary cutaneous acral CD8+ T cell LPD. While the 2022 ICC introduced the term "primary cutaneous marginal zone LPD," in the 5th edition of the WHO classification PCMZL is maintained. In this review we describe the background and rationale of the continually changing terminology of these conditions and discuss the clinical consequences of downgrading malignant lymphomas to LPDs.

Abstract
While ex vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy has previously demonstrated its utility in most common skin diseases, its use in the assessment of dermatological entities with lower incidence remains unexplored in most cases. We therefore aimed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of some rare skin tumors as well as a few inflammatory skin diseases, that have not yet been studied in ex vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy. A total of 50 tissue samples comprising 10 healthy controls, 10 basal cell carcinoma, 10 squamous cell carcinoma, and 20 rare skin conditions were imaged using the newest generation ex vivo confocal microscopy (Vivascope 2500 M-G4, Vivascope GmbH, Munich, Germany). Three blinded investigators were asked to identify characteristic features of rare skin disorders and distinguish them from more common skin diseases in the ex vivo confocal microscopy images. Our findings present the capability of ex vivo confocal microscopy to display distinctive morphologic patterns in common and rare skin diseases. As might be expected, we found a strong correlation between imaging experience and diagnostic accuracy. While the imaging inexperienced dermatohistopathologist reached 60% concordance, the imaging-trained dermatologist obtained 88% agreement with dermatohistopathology. The imaging-trained dermatohistopathologist achieved concordance up to 92% with gold-standard dermatohistopathology. This study highlights the potential of ex vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy as a promising adjunct to conventional dermatohistopathology for the early and precise identification of rare dermatological disorders.

Identifying and addressing unmet clinical needs in primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma: A consensus-based paper from an ad-hoc international panel. Hematol Oncol 2024; 42:e3215.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (PCBCLs) are lymphoproliferative disorders that appear on the skin without evidence of extracutaneous manifestations at the time of diagnosis. There is a lack of evidence-based guidelines for their clinical management due to the availability of very few large scale studies and controlled clinical trials. Here we present and discuss a series of major unmet clinical needs (UCNs) in the management of PCBCLs by a panel of 16 experts involved in research and clinical practice of PCBCL. The Panel produced recommendations on the appropriateness of the clinical decisions concerning the identified clinical needs and proposed research for improving the knowledge needed to solve them. Recommendations and proposals were achieved by multiple-step formalized procedures to reach a consensus after a comprehensive analysis of the scientific literature. Recommendations and proposals lay in the domain of classification uncertainties of PCBCL, optimization of diagnosis, optimization of prognosis, optimization of staging and critical issues on therapeutic strategies with particular focus on new treatments. These recommendations are intended for use not only by experts but above all by dermatologists and hematologists with limited experience in the field of PCBCLs as well as general practitioners.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (PCMZLs) are classified as low-grade as they run an indolent course. They are histologically characterized through non-epidermotropic nodular or diffuse infiltrates consisting of small or medium heterogeneous atypical lymphoid cells. In the past few years, chemotherapy has increased the survival rate of breast cancer patients. However, the adverse effects of treatment, such as leukemia, have also been shown to emerge gradually. Additionally, cases of occurrence of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) post chemotherapy have also been reported. A 48-year-old female patient was presented with a violaceous nodule on her left thigh. Around 15 months ago, she completed breast cancer chemotherapy. Eight months later, a skin lesion appeared. Histological findings revealed dense and nodular lymphocyte infiltration. Immunohistochemical staining was positive for CD20 and BCL2. Clinical and histological examination of the lesions confirmed PCMZL. After systemic evaluation, lymphoma was found to be limited to the skin, and thus, she underwent complete excision of the lesion. At the first month follow-up, there was a recurrent lesion on the right wrist, which was excised successfully. However, recurrences occurred again in the calf and forearm in the following five and two months, respectively. These lesions were also confirmed with PCMZL using biopsy. We assume that this case is related to chemotherapy as it was presented and recurred abruptly post chemotherapy. Additionally, there are several reported cases of NHL post breast cancer chemotherapy. However, this is the first case report of PCMZL associated with chemotherapy.

Abstract
DISEASE OVERVIEW Marginal zone lymphomas (MZL) are collectively the second most common type of indolent lymphoma. DIAGNOSIS Three subtypes of MZL are recognized: splenic, extranodal, and nodal. The diagnosis is secured following biopsy of an involved nodal or extranodal site demonstrating a clonal B-cell infiltrate with CD5 and CD10 negative immunophenotype most common. Some cases will features IgM paraprotein, but MYD88 L256P mutations are less frequent than in Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. Prognostication Several prognostic models have been developed, including the MALT-IPI and the MZL-IPI. The latter is broadly applicable across MZL subtypes and incorporates elevated serum LDH, anemia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia and nodal or disseminated subtypes as independent predictors of outcome. TREATMENT We discuss suggested approach to therapy for both early and advanced-stage disease, with reference to chemo-immunotherapy, radiotherapy, and emerging treatments in relapsed/refractory disease such as BTK inhibitors.

Abstract
Cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorders include cutaneous manifestations of systemic B-cell or T-cell lymphoma and primary cutaneous lymphomas. Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas are subcategorised into four groups: primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL), primary cutaneous follicle centre lymphoma, primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg-type and EBV-positive mucocutaneous tumour. Each of these cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorders has unique clinical and pathological features necessitating biopsy and staging to establish proper treatment. We present a case of PCMZL manifesting as secondary chilblains of the toes that was diagnosed with punch skin biopsy. The patient's chilblains resolved with rituximab. This case underscores the importance of considering PCMZL and other cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorders in patients with dermatological manifestations and wounds refractory to first-line treatment.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Primary cutaneous posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) are exceedingly rare, with only 6 published cases, all of them consisting in T-cell neoplasms. In this report, we present for the first time a donor-derived B-cell PTLD consisting in a primary, cutaneous, B-cell, marginal zone, lymphoproliferative disorder (PCMZLPD). The patient, a 37-year-old woman with a history of Hodgkin lymphoma received an allo-HSCT from her healthy, matched, related father, achieving complete host chimerism in the bone marrow and peripheral blood. However, 8 years after the allo-HSCT, she presented asymptomatic skin lesions consisting in oval, well-defined, slightly raised erythematous plaques, located on the arms, trunk, and legs. Skin biopsies of 2 lesions demonstrated a class-switched IgG+, EBV-, PCMZLPD, showing kappa light chain restriction and monoclonal rearrangement of the IgH gene. Microsatellite genotyping and 2-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (X and Y chromosomes) confirmed that the origin of the neoplastic cells was the donor graft. The lesions showed an indolent behavior, good response to topical corticosteroids, and no need for systemic treatment. Our case broadens the spectrum of PTLD, a diverse group of lymphoid and/or plasmacytic proliferations with variable clinical presentations and histopathological features.

Abstract
The Revised European-American Classification of mature lymphoid neoplasms published in 1994 and the 2001, 2008 and 2016 WHO classifications that followed, were the product of international collaboration and consensus amongst haematopathologists, geneticists, molecular scientists and clinicians. Primary cutaneous lymphomas were fully incorporated into this process following the publication of the WHO-EORTC classification of cutaneous lymphomas in 2005. The definition, diagnostic criteria and recommended studies for primary cutaneous lymphoma continue to be refined. The 2022 International Consensus Classification represents the most recent update and an overview of all the main entities presenting primarily in the skin, together with the major changes in classification, are summarized herein. Primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma is segregated from other extranodal marginal zone lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) and downgraded to a lymphoproliferative disorder in line with its markedly indolent behaviour. In addition, two subtypes are recognised, based largely but not exclusively on whether they are heavy chain class-switched or IgM positive. Similarly, in keeping with a trend to greater conservatism, primary cutaneous acral CD8 positive T cell lymphoma is now also classified as a lymphoproliferative disorder. In addition, significant new insights into the biology of primary cutaneous lymphoma have also recently been forthcoming and will be presented. These studies have enhanced our knowledge of genetic, epigenetic and transcriptional changes in this group of diseases. They not only identify potential targets for novel therapies, but also raise as yet unanswered questions as to how we categorise cutaneous lymphomas, particularly with respect to relationships with similar lymphomas at extracutaneous sites.

Abstract
Simple Summary The genetic landscape of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas analyzed by sequencing high throughput techniques shows a heterogeneous somatic mutational profile and genomic copy number variations in the TCR signaling effectors, the NF-κB elements, DNA damage/repair elements, JAK/STAT pathway elements and epigenetic modifiers. A mutational and genomic stratification of these patients provides new opportunities for the development or repurposing of (personalized) therapeutic strategies. The genetic heterogeneity in cutaneous B-cell lymphoma parallels with the specific subtype. Damaging mutations in primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the leg type, involving MYD88 gene, or BCL6 and MYC translocations or CDKN2A deletions are useful for diagnostic purposes. The more indolent forms, as the primary cutaneous lymphoma of follicle center cell (somatic mutations in TNFRSF14 and 1p36 deletions) and the cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorder of the marginal zone cells (FAS gene), present with a more restricted pattern of genetic alterations. Abstract Primary cutaneous lymphomas comprise a heterogeneous group of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) that arise from skin resident lymphoid cells and are manifested by specific lymphomatous cutaneous lesions with no evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. They may originate from mature T-lymphocytes (70% of all cases), mature B-lymphocytes (25–30%) or, rarely, NK cells. Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) comprise a heterogeneous group of T-cell malignancies including Mycosis Fungoides (MF) the most frequent subtype, accounting for approximately half of CTCL, and Sézary syndrome (SS), which is an erythrodermic and leukemic subtype characterized by significant blood involvement. The mutational landscape of MF and SS by NGS include recurrent genomic alterations in the TCR signaling effectors (i.e., PLCG1), the NF-κB elements (i.e., CARD11), DNA damage/repair elements (TP53 or ATM), JAK/STAT pathway elements or epigenetic modifiers (DNMT3). Genomic copy number variations appeared to be more prevalent than somatic mutations. Other CTCL subtypes such as primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma also harbor genetic alterations of the JAK/STAT pathway in up to 50% of cases. Recently, primary cutaneous aggressive epidermotropic T-cell lymphoma, a rare fatal subtype, was found to contain a specific profile of JAK2 rearrangements. Other aggressive cytotoxic CTCL (primary cutaneous γδ T-cell lymphomas) also show genetic alterations in the JAK/STAT pathway in a large proportion of patients. Thus, CTCL patients have a heterogeneous genetic/transcriptional and epigenetic background, and there is no uniform treatment for these patients. In this scenario, a pathway-based personalized management is required. Cutaneous B-cell lymphoma (CBCL) subtypes present a variable genetic profile. The genetic heterogeneity parallels the multiple types of specialized B-cells and their specific tissue distribution. Particularly, many recurrent hotspot and damaging mutations in primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the leg type, involving MYD88 gene, or BCL6 and MYC translocations and BLIMP1 or CDKN2A deletions are useful for diagnostic and prognostic purposes for this aggressive subtype from other indolent CBCL forms.

Abstract
Simple Summary Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma distinguishes itself from other indolent lymphomas due to its unique pathophysiology and natural history. This is reflected in its management, where next to traditional treatment strategies such as observation, radiotherapy or chemotherapy, eradication of the causal agent and even surgery represent important aspects of therapy. This review focuses on the particular aspects of this indolent lymphoma that affect management and summarizes the current evidence and different guidelines. Abstract Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) encompasses a subgroup of non-Hodgkin lymphomas that often present with localized involvement and may manifest in a diversity of organs and tissues. EMZL pathogenesis is in some cases linked to chronic inflammation/infection, which may impose additional diagnostic and clinical challenges. The most studied and established connection is the presence of Helicobacter pylori in gastric EMZL. Due to its heterogeneity of presentation and intricate pathological features, treatment can be complex, and staging systems are decisive for the choice of therapy. Nevertheless, there is no consensus regarding the most suitable staging system, and recommendations vary among different countries. As a rule of thumb, in limited stages, a local therapy with surgery or radiation is the preferred option, and it is potentially curative. Of note, eradicating the causal agent may be an important step of treatment, especially in gastric EMZL, in which Helicobacter pylori eradication remains the first-line therapy for the majority of patients. In patients with more advanced stages, watch-and-wait is a valuable option, especially amongst those without clear indications for systemic therapy, and it may be carried on for several years. If watch-and-wait is not an option, systemic therapy may be needed. Even though several agents have been tested as monotherapy or in combination in recent years, there is no consensus regarding the first-line therapy, and decisions can vary depending on individual factors, such as age, clinical performance and stage. This review aims to discuss the several aspects of EMZL, including genetic milieu, pathogenesis and staging systems, that may influence the choice of therapy. In addition, we present a summary of evidence of several systemic therapies, compare different recommendations worldwide and discuss future perspectives and novelties in its therapy.

Abstract
Neoplasms with plasma cell differentiation may occasionally involve the skin. Cutaneous lesions may represent the first sign of an underlying systemic plasma cell malignancy, such as multiple myeloma, or the skin itself may be the primary site of occurrence of a hematological tumor with plasma cell differentiation. Starting from examples encountered in our daily practice, we discussed the diagnostic approach pathologists and clinicians should use when faced with cutaneous lesions with plasma cell differentiation. Cases of primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma, localized primary amyloidosis/amyloidoma, and cutaneous manifestations (secondary either to multiple myeloma or to plasmablastic lymphoma) are discussed, focusing on the importance of the adequate patient’s work-up and precise clinicopathological correlation to get to the correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment. The pertinent literature has been reviewed, and the clinical presentation, pathological findings, main differential diagnoses, treatment, and outcome of neoplasms with plasma cell differentiation involving the skin are discussed.

Abstract
The spectrum of cutaneous CD30-positive lymphoproliferative disorders encompasses both inflammatory and neoplastic conditions. CD30+ Hodgkin and Reed–Sternberg-like cells have been occasionally reported in primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma, where they are thought to represent a side neoplastic component within a dominant background of lymphomatous small B cells. Herein, we describe the histological and molecular findings of three cases of primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphomas with CD30+ H/RS cells, in which next-generation sequencing analysis revealed the clonal population to consist in less than 5% of the cutaneous B-cell infiltrate, providing a thought-provoking focus on a possible main role for CD30+ cells in primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoproliferations.

Abstract
PCBCLs are a group of Non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphomas originating in and usually confined to the skin, representing approximately one fourth of primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCL). Their current classification system has been the result of the joint World Health Organization (WHO) - European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) consensus in 2018. To date, several types of PCBCLs have been described in the scientific literature, with different clinical presentation and prognosis. Primary cutaneous follicle-center lymphoma (PCFCL) and primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL) are the most common forms, with a typical indolent course. On the contrary, primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type (PCDLBCL, LT) is less common, yet more aggressive, with a reported 5-year overall survival of approximatively 50%. In this review, we outline the PCBCLs defining diagnostic criteria, report the features of the less common subtypes and summarize the noteworthy therapeutical options currently available in this field.

Abstract
Since the publication of the Japanese "Guidelines for the management of cutaneous lymphomas" in 2011, the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of hematolymphoid neoplasms and the WHO-European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer classification for primary cutaneous lymphomas were updated and a number of novel systemic drugs for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma had been approved in Japan. In 2020, we revised the Japanese guidelines for the management of cutaneous lymphomas with consideration of the recent advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology and classification of cutaneous lymphomas together with the update of treatment strategies reflecting the advent of novel drugs. In addition to a brief explanation of epidemiology, diagnosis, staging system, prognosis and management of each subtype of cutaneous lymphomas, the recommendations for nine clinical questions regarding treatment options that can vary even among experts are also described. A systematic review process and determination of recommendations in answer to each clinical question have been performed in accordance with the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation scheme by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of dermatologists, a hematologist and a radiation oncologist. In this article, we present the outlines of the revised Japanese "Guidelines for the management of cutaneous lymphomas".

Abstract
Primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas other than mycosis fungoides, Sézary syndrome, and lymphoproliferative CD30+ disorders are few, accounting for less than 5% of all cutaneous lymphomas. A cytotoxic phenotype is characteristic of these tumors, and their clinical behavior is usually aggressive. Patients often present with extracutaneous symptoms or develop them shortly after diagnosis. Management is usually multidisciplinary, and intensive systemic therapy and bone marrow transplantation should be considered. Cutaneous B-cell lymphomas account for approximately 30% of primary cutaneous lymphomas. They make up a heterogeneous group of tumors that have different clinical and pathological features. Clinical course also varies. Presenting as papules, nodules, or tumors of variable reddish-violaceous coloring, the lesions may be solitary or multiple and occasionally form clusters. There may also be generalized lesions, present at multiple sites on the trunk, head, or extremities. Three well-defined groups of primary cutaneous lymphoma have been reported: follicle center lymphoma; marginal zone lymphoma, which follows an indolent course; and a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type, which follows an aggressive course.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atypical cutaneous lymphoid infiltrates are challenging lesions in dermatopathology. We present a summary of the literature regarding kappa and lambda immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (ISH) in the evaluation of atypical cutaneous or mucosal lymphoid infiltrates. METHODS Relevant articles from 1967 to 2018 in the English language were identified and summarized. In the absence of larger studies, case series of n ≥ 3 were included. RESULTS Sixty-three articles assessing kappa and lambda IHC and/or ISH were identified. Most focused on marginal zone lymphomas. Other lymphomas included follicle center lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, plasmablastic lymphoma, multiple myeloma, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, and polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal protein, skin changes (POEMS). Non-neoplastic lesions included reactive lymphoid hyperplasia, cutaneous plasmacytosis, connective tissue disease, IgG4-related disease, acrodermatitis chronic atrophicans, Zoon balanitis, dermatitides, and infiltrates around epithelial dysplasias/neoplasias. CONCLUSION Kappa and lambda IHC and ISH are useful tools in the evaluation of cutaneous B-cell lymphomas and plasma cell neoplasms. The literature supports that the detection of light-chain restriction by IHC and ISH is one of the most useful findings in the differential diagnosis of reactive lymphoid hyperplasia vs B-cell lymphoma with plasmacytic differentiation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL) is 1 of the 3 major subtypes of primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma. The diagnosis of PCMZL may be challenging, as the differential diagnosis includes benign cutaneous lymphoproliferations as well as other primary or secondary cutaneous B-cell or T-cell lymphomas. This review describes our approach to the diagnosis of PCMZL. METHODS Two cases are presented that illustrate how we diagnose each of the 2 subtypes of PCMZL. The clinicopathologic features of PCMZL and the ways in which these cases can be distinguished from both benign and other neoplastic entities are emphasized. RESULTS A definitive diagnosis of PCMZL requires the incorporation of histologic and immunophenotypic features, molecular genetic studies in some cases, and just as importantly, clinical findings. Emerging data suggest that the heavy chain class-switched cases may be more like a clonal chronic lymphoproliferative disorder. CONCLUSIONS The 2 subtypes of PCMZL create different diagnostic challenges and require the use of a multiparameter approach. Although very indolent, it is important to distinguish PCMZLs from reactive proliferations, because they frequently recur and may require antineoplastic therapies. It is also critical to distinguish PCMZLs from other B- or T-cell lymphomas so that patients are properly evaluated and not overtreated.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (PCBCL) are rare types of extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The choice of treatment usually depends on the variant of PCBCL, number, size, and location of the lesions, involved body surface area as well as patient's age and health condition. The efficacy of radiotherapy (RT) in the treatment of PCBCL has been widely reported conversely, data about the acute and late skin toxicity, patient's treatment satisfaction and quality of life are scarce. A systematic search using PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane library was performed to identify full original articles analyzing the safety of RT in patients with PCBCL with the primary outcome to assess the acute and late skin toxicity. Secondary outcomes were complete remission, disease free survival, and overall survival. The literature search resulted in 276 articles including eight studies assessing the safety of RT for the treatment of PCBCL. Most patients (median 73%, range 11.9-99.9%) were recorded as having acute skin toxicity of grade 1-2, while acute grade 3-4 toxicity occurred in a median of 8% (range 4-23%) of patients. A median of 20% (range 4-54%) of patients had late skin toxicity of grade 1-2. No late grade 3-4 toxicity was reported. Only one study evaluated patient's satisfaction showing that the 97% of patients were satisfied with radiation therapy. This systematic review confirms the safety of RT in the treatment of PCBCL. Patients with a PCBCL should be managed in highly specialized centers in the context of a multidisciplinary team including dermatologist, hematologist, pathologist, and radiation oncologist.

Abstract
CONTEXT.— The evaluation of cutaneous lymphoid infiltrates, both neoplastic and inflammatory, occurs very frequently in routine dermatopathologic examination and consultation practices. The "tough" cutaneous lymphoid infiltrate is feared by many pathologists; skin biopsies are relatively small, whereas diagnostic possibilities are relatively broad. It is true that cutaneous lymphomas can be difficult to diagnose and that in many circumstances multiple biopsies are required to establish a correct diagnostic interpretation. As a reminder, one should understand that low-grade cutaneous lymphomas are indolent disorders that usually linger for decades and that therapy does not result in disease cure. It is also important to remember that in most circumstances, those patients will die from another process that is completely unrelated to a diagnosis of skin lymphoma (even in the absence of specific therapy). OBJECTIVE.— To use a clinicopathologic, immunophenotypic, and molecular approach in the evaluation of common lymphocytic infiltrates. DATA SOURCES.— An in-depth analysis of updated literature in the field of cutaneous lymphomas was done, with particular emphasis on updated terminology from the most recent World Health Organization classification of skin and hematologic tumors. CONCLUSIONS.— A diagnosis of cutaneous lymphoid infiltrates can be adequately approached using a systematic scheme following the proposed ABCDE system. Overall, cutaneous T- and B-cell lymphomas are rare and "reactive" infiltrates are more common. Evaluation of lymphoid proliferations should start with a good sense of knowledge of the clinical presentation of the lesions, the clinical differential considerations, and a conscientious and appropriate use of immunohistochemistry and molecular tools.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (PCBCLs) comprise a group of extranodal B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas B-cell derived, which primarily involve the skin without evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. They include ~25% of all cutaneous lymphomas and are classified in three major subgroups (World Health Organization (WHO) 2017): primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL), primary cutaneous follicle-center cell lymphoma (PCFCL), and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type (PCDLBCL, LT). This classification also includes some less common entities such as intravascular large B-cell lymphoma. Recently, WHO-EORTC added Epstein-Barr virus positive (EBV+) mucocutaneous ulcer, as a new provisional distinct entity, to cutaneous B-cell lymphomas. PCBCLs are classically characterized by patches, plaques, or nodules showing great variability for color, shape, and location. Diagnosis requires histological examination with immunohistochemical staining. In general, therapeutic options depend on the exact histological and immunohistochemical classification, disease presentation, and risk assessment. PCMZL and PCFCL are considered indolent lymphomas with a good prognosis and are associated with 5-year disease-specific survival ≥ 95%. In contrast, PCDLBCL, LT is considered an aggressive lymphoma with a survival rate in 5 years of lower than 60%. Patients with a solitary lesion or limited lesions in a single anatomical site require different treatments as compared to patients with generalized lesions or refractory disease or extracutaneous involvement. Therapeutic choice includes observation, local, or systemic therapy based on histology and disease extension. Patient management is multidisciplinary, including dermatologists, pathologists, hemato-oncologists, and radiation oncologists.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whole-body imaging is the current standard of care for staging all patients presenting with skin lesions of B-cell lymphomas (BCLs), regardless of skin disease extent; however, supporting data are lacking. OBJECTIVE To determine the clinical utility of imaging in the detection of systemic involvement in low-grade cutaneous BCLs in the skin. METHODS Retrospective cohort analysis of patients presenting with cutaneous lesions of BCLs at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Stanford University during 1997-2016. RESULTS At initial staging, of the 522 patients, extracutaneous disease was noted in 3.6% and 8.8% of patients with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL, n = 306) and follicle center lymphoma (FCL, n = 216) histology, respectively. In patients with systemic involvement, imaging alone identified 81.8% (9/11) of MZL cases and 89.4% of follicular lymphoma cases. In primary cutaneous MZL, 1.7% of patients subsequently had extracutaneous involvement (median follow-up 45 months), and in primary cutaneous FCL. 3.0% subsequently had extracutaneous involvement (median follow-up 47 months). LIMITATIONS This was a retrospective study. CONCLUSION Imaging is effective at identifying patients with systemic involvement in indolent BCLs present in the skin; however, incidence is low. After negative initial staging, primary cutaneous MZL patients may be followed clinically without routine imaging.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of T- and B-cell lymphomas that present in the skin with no evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. The 2005 World Health Organization-European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (WHO-EORTC) consensus classification has served as a golden standard for the diagnosis and classification of these conditions. In September 2018, an updated version of the WHO-EORTC was published in the fourth edition of the WHO Classification of Skin Tumours Blue Book. In this classification, primary cutaneous acral CD8+ T-cell lymphoma and Epstein-Barr virus positive (EBV+) mucocutaneous ulcer are included as new provisional entities, and a new section on cutaneous forms of chronic active EBV disease has been added. The term "primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium T-cell lymphoma" was modified to "primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder" because of its indolent clinical behavior and uncertain malignant potential. Modifications have also been made in the sections on lymphomatoid papulosis, increasing the spectrum of histologic and genetic types, and primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphomas recognizing 2 different subtypes. Herein, the characteristic features of these new and modified entities as well as the results of recent molecular studies with diagnostic, prognostic, and/or therapeutic significance for the different types of primary cutaneous lymphomas are reviewed. An update of the frequency and survival of the different types of primary cutaneous lymphomas is provided.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas represent approximately 25% of primary cutaneous lymphomas. Follicular centre cell lymphomas (PCFCL) and marginal zone lymphomas (PCMZL) are the two histological subtypes that present an indolent evolution. Radiotherapy is one of the recommended treatment options with few series reported. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate radiotherapy outcomes in term of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) for patients suffering from a PCMZL or PCFCL, to search for predictive factors of recurrence, and to evaluate chronic and aesthetics adverse events and patient's satisfaction. METHODS Patients treated with contact low energy radiotherapy for a PMZCL or PCFCL from April 2009 to June 2017 in Saint Louis hospital were retrospectively analysed. Total dose ranged from 18 to 30 Gy. Objective response (OR) rates, DFS and OS as patterns of recurrence according to radiation fields were analysed. Univariate analysis of DFS has been performed according to clinical and biological parameters. Acute toxicity, long-term adverse events and satisfaction were collected via individualized questionnaires. RESULTS Forty-six patients were included. Median follow-up was 43.5 months. OR was achieved for 100% of cases. Recurrence occurred in 39% of cases. Median DFS was 44 months. Three-year DFS and 5-year DFS were 56% and 51%, respectively. OS at 3 and 5 year was 100%. Only sex was significantly associated with DFS. Acute AEs occurred in 48% of cases without grade 3 and 4. 55% reported some moderate aesthetic sequelae for long-term AEs. 97% were satisfied with treatment. CONCLUSION This study confirms the good risk-benefit of radiotherapy for the treatment of primary cutaneous indolent B-cell lymphomas due to the high response rate and a long DFS. No significant factor for recurrence was identified, except female sex. Long-term aesthetic evaluation was good or excellent for most of the patients.

Abstract
B-cell lymphomas represent approximately 20% to 25% of primary cutaneous lymphomas. Within this group, most cases (>99%) are encompassed by 3 diagnostic entities: primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma, primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma, and primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type. In this article, the authors present clinical, histopathologic, immunophenotypic, and molecular features of each of these entities and briefly discuss the rarer intravascular large B-cell lymphoma.

Abstract
Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (EMZLs) of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) are indolent lymphomas which can present at any extranodal site. The most frequent localizations (other than stomach) are ocular adnexa, salivary gland, skin, lung and thyroid. Chronic inflammation and antigenic stimulation are a potential risk for the development of MALT lymphomas. While Helicobacter Pylori (HP) is known to be associated with gastric MALT lymphoma and antibiotic therapy is effective in the setting of HP-positive, other microorganisms (such as Chlamydophila Psittaci, Campylobacter Jejiuni, Borrelia Burgdoferi) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of non-gastric MALT lymphomas. However, antibiotic therapy has not been extensively investigated for the non-gastric type, except for ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma, which could benefit from an upfront treatment with doxycycline. Surgery, radiotherapy, Rituximab alone or in combination with chemotherapy and "chemo-free" approaches, including lenalidomide, have shown efficacy in the treatment of non-gastric MALT lymphomas.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (CMZL) is one of the major primary B-cell lymphomas of skin. Two types are recognized: a more common class-chain switched CMZL, and a much less common IgM+ CMZL. The extremely indolent course, together with other features distinct from most other MALT lymphomas, has led some to question whether at least the class-switched cases should be considered an overt lymphoma.

Abstract
Extranodal mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (ENMALT) marginal zone lymphomas may arise at any site of the body. The most frequent localizations other than gastrointestinal and eye are salivary gland, skin, lung and thyroid. These lymphomas usually arise in a setting of inflammation due to a persistent infection or autoimmune diseases such as Sjogren syndrome in salivary MALT lymphomas and Hashimoto's thryroiditis in thyroid lymphomas. They affect middle-aged patients with a female predominance when lymphoma arises in certain locations. Patients often present with localised stage I or II although disseminated disease may be present at diagnosis or relapse in a third of the cases. Biopsy of the affected site is mandatory to establish the diagnosis and a full work-up staging is recommended. The clinical course is indolent and prognosis is good despite that recurrences following response to therapy are frequent. Surgery, radiotherapy and/or Rituximab based regimens are effective in these lymphomas.
