Extranodal B-cell lymphoma in a patient with atopic-like dermatitis.
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic relapsing skin disease that occurs commonly during early infancy and childhood and is frequently associated to personal and family history of allergic rhinitis, asthma and/or skin disease. As a rule, it follows a benign course. We report a case of a female patient with a chronic atopic-like dermatitis who eventually developed an extranodal systemic large B-cell lymphoma during the course of her disease.
