Abstract
Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma is characterized by red-brown plaques or nodules on the skin, may mimic skin and soft tissue infections and is usually related with high mortality. A case that was followed up as compli¬cated erysipelas due to similar clinical findings but diagnosed as primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma with histopathological examination has been presented in this report.
