Excerpt

Sirs, we have reported in this journal the case of a 40-year-old black man who developed an unusual form of lymphoid hyperplasia primarily involving the subcutis and closely mimicking subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL) [1]. The lesion, which characteristically arose at the site of tribal scarifications, did not, at first, show any convincing feature of malignancy. It was, therefore, deemed to be a particular variant of subcutaneous lymphoid hyperplasia, perhaps related to the scarification process itself. We wish to report here on this patient’s follow-up. …
