Primary soft tissue lymphoma associated with mesenteric lipodystrophy.
Skin involvement in non-Hodgkin lymphoma is usually specific and may precede systemic manifestations of the disease by months or even years. We report the case of a man with an inguinal plaque lesion of 1 year's evolution, diagnosed as polymorphous lymphoplasmocytoid lymphoma (immunocytoma). The evaluation of spread only revealed mesenteric lipodystrophy, whose association with lymphoid processes is more common than would be expected.
