We report two patients with primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma who were treated with rituximab, a new anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody. The first patient, who had a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the lower leg, achieved an 85% improvement. The second patient, who had a primary cutaneous B-cell lymphom

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes involved in the evolution of nine cases of recurrent B-cell lymphomas. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue from both the primary and the recurrent lymphoma of each case, monoclonality was demonstra
Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (CBCLs) represent a rare, but distinct group of B-cell neoplasms with a different clinical behaviour to B-cell lymphomas secondarily involving the skin. Fas-Fas ligand (Fasl) expression was investigated in a group of primary and secondary CBCLs to gain an insight i
