Zosteriform Primary Cutaneous Marginal Zone Lymphoma—A Case Report
ABSTRACT We report a case of zosteriform PCMZL presenting in a T3–T4 dermatomal distribution not previously described in the literature. Although the varicella zoster virus was not detected in this case, late diagnosis of the acute eruption of zoster or even preceding zoster ‘sine herpete’ cannot be excluded as antigenic triggers.
