SUMMARY
A 60βyearβold woman presented with a 3βweek history of a pruritic papuloβnodular eruption on the face and trunk after a bee sting. Histological examination showed a predominantly lymphocytic infiltrate with follicular centres and tingible body macrophages. Immunohistochemically, positive staining for both kappa and lambda light chains was noted. The eruption settled with oral antihistamine and topical corticosteroid. These findings support the diagnosis of follicular Bβcell pseudolymphoma.

## ABSTRACT We report two cases of cutaneous Bβcell pseudolymphoma (PCBCL) induced by intradermal antigen injections for specific immune therapy (SIT). In both cases, the lesions had first developed on the area of injection; years later, new lesions appeared far from the original site. The histolog
Genomic DNA digests of skin biopsies from 20 patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphomas and pseudolymphomas were studied by hybridization, using probes for the constant region of the T-cell receptor beta chain and the joining region of the immunoglobin heavy chain gene. Skin biopsies from all 20 patie
