Abstract
Follicular lymphoma is a type of systemic lymphomas which constitutes approximately 30-35% of all Non-Hodgkin lymphomas. It typically presents itself in the form of generalized lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly and bone marrow involvement. Cutaneous involvement of follicular lymphoma generally appears as skin-coloured to red, violaceous papules or nodules most commonly involving the scalp, trunk and head&neck region. Herein, we would like to present an unusual case of follicular lymphoma which appears as skin-coloured papules prominent upon the both ears and trunk.
