To be discussed
Why are cutaneous lymphomas special (different from nodal NHL) ?
History of cutaneous lymphoma classification
• dictates the type of treatment
• provides information on clinical course and prognosis.
• incorrect classification → incorrect treatment
1806 Mycosis fungoides (MF)
1938 Sézary syndrome
proposed as an encompassing term for
above conditions.
described by Alibert (1806)
Edelson R. J Am Acad Dermatol 1980;2:89-106
History of cutaneous lymphoma classification: 1990
6
- classified by pathologist with schemes used
for nodal lymphomas and based on
morphology (histologic classification:
secondary cutaneous lymphomas.
lymphomas with secondary skin
7
- classified by pathologist with schemes used
for nodal lymphomas and based on
morphology (histologic classification:
secondary cutaneous lymphomas.
lymphomas with secondary skin
Primary ≠ secondary cutaneous lymphomas.
(histologic diagnosis ≠ final diagnosis).
clinicopathologic correlation essential.
Histology: CBCL, centroblastic = diagnosis
Therapy: multi-agent chemotherapy (consistent with centroblastic lymphoma) → CR
Follow-up: died of lymphoma 32 months after diagnosis.
Centroblastic lymphoma
Histology: CBCL, centroblastic = diagnosis
Follow-up: sustained CR (168 months).
Centroblastic lymphoma presenting with only skin lesions
Follicular: <5%
follicular and diffuse and diffuse growth pattern
Histologic growth pattern of PCFCL
Primary cutaneous ≠ nodal centroblastic lymphoma
• Solitary or localized lesions on trunk or face/scalp (85%)
• Therapy: radiotherapy
• Extracutaneous dissemination uncommon (<10%)
• Distinct clinicopathologic entity (derived from follicle center (germinal center) B-cells:
primary cutaneous follicle center cell lymphoma
before radiotherapy
after radiotherapy
Willemze R. et al, Am J Pathol 1987;126:325-333; Berti E. et al; J Am Acad Dermatol 1988;19:259-272
Primary Cutaneous Lymphoma (PCL):
• No evidence of extracutaneous disease at time diagnosis as
assessed by appropriate staging procedures.
Secondary CL (skin localizations of NHL)
• NHL with both cutaneous and extracutaneous localizations at
diagnosis
• Skin localizations in a patient with a history of a systemic NHL
Primary vs secondary cutaneous lymphomas
Primary cutaneous
immunocytoma (PCMZL)
(5-yr-survival: 99%)
Low grade (B-cell)
• Small lymphocytic (B-CLL)
Low grade (T-cell) = small cell
• Small lymphocytic (T-CLL)
• Small cerebriform (MF/SS)
• Lennert’s lymphoma
• Pleomorphic medium/large
18 Beljaards RC. Et al; Am J Pathol. 1989;135:1169-78.
PCL vs nodal NHL -/+ secondary cutaneous involvement
• Distinctive clinical features (disease entities)
• Other clinical behaviour and prognosis → different type of treatment.
• Other biologic features (e.g. genetic pathways; translocations;
adhesion molecules) → different pathogenesis.
• PCL should be included as separate entities in malignant lymphoma
classifications (to prevent unnecessarily aggressive therapies).
PCL vs nodal NHL -/+ secondary cutaneous involvement
Primary cutaneous lymphomas are visible and accessible:
• Different types of CTCL and CBCL have a characteristic clinical
presentation that may be helpful in diagnosis and classification.
• Different types of cutaneous lymphoma can show an identical histology
→ classification on the basis of histology alone impossible.
• Histologic diagnosis = differential diagnosis ≠ final diagnosis →
clinicopathologic correlation essential
Centroblastic lymphoma presenting with only skin lesions
Localized skin lesions on trunk (back) or scalp (>80%)
Primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma
Preferential localization on arms and upper trunk (65%)
Primary cutaneous DLBCL, leg type
Preferential localization on leg(s) in elderly patients (>80%)
Early stage mycosis fungoides
Folliculotropic mycosis fungoides

New concepts in cutaneous lymphoma classification
Primary ≠ secondary cutaneous lymphomas.
• Histologic diagnosis ≠ final diagnosis.
• Clinicopathologic correlation essential in diagnosis and classification
New types of CTCL and CBCL
New classifications (EORTC; WHO-EORTC; WHO-EORTC 2018)
New types of CTCL and CBCL: 1985 - 1996
1987 primary cutaneous follicle center cell lymphoma
1989 primary cutaneous CD30+ large T-cell lymphoma (C-ALCL) vs
1989 primary cutaneous CD30 - large T-cell lymphoma
1991 primary cutaneous immunocytoma (PCMZL)
1992 spectrum primary cutaneous CD30+ LPD
1993 CD30-negative CTCL (non-MF) [small vs large]
1996 primary cutaneous large B-cell lymphoma of the leg
Should be, but were not included as distinct disease entities in malignant lymphoma
classifications to prevent unnecessarily aggressive treatment: → EORTC classification (1997)
EORTC classification for cutaneous lymphomas
Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma
Cutaneous B-cell Lymphoma
Intermediate behaviour • large B-cell lymphoma of the leg
Provisional entities • plasmacytoma • intravascular large B-cell lymphoma
Willemze R et al: BLOOD 1997;90: 354-371

- Aggressive cytotoxic epidermotropic CD8+ CTCL

25%
• CTCL (75%) much more common than CBCL (25%)
• CTCL is not a diagnosis, but refers to a group of diseases with different
treatment and prognosis.
phenotypical, genetic and clinical criteria (clinicopathologic entities).
• Clinical presentation (localization !!) often is a major diagnostic adjunct.
• If the clinician fails to provide the appropriate clinical information, a
definite diagnosis can often not be made.
Summary

and classification and are a prerequisite for correct
management and treatment.
