Abstract

Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma is a small subset of anaplastic large cell lymphoma. It can only be differentiated from the other subtypes by exclusion of extracutaneous involvement and correlation of the clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical features. This case presentation describes a 76 year-old man with an abdominal mass larger than 5 centimeters that was found to be primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
