Clinically, primary cutaneous plasmablastic lymphoma presents as non-specific cutaneous lesions (purple nodules, erythematous infiltrated plaques). In previously described cases, as in this case, histology and immunohistochemistry are required to make the diagnosis. Owing to the rarity of this entity, there is no established therapy, which makes its management an individualized, patient-based decision.engplasmablastic lymphomaB-cell lymphomasHuman herpesvirus 8HIV infectionPlasmablastic lymphoma: an atypical cutaneous presentation of a rare entityjournal article
