This disease is <u>defined/characterized</u> as detailed below:


* Primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL) is an indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma arising in skin without evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. The tumor is comprised of monotypic, CD5-negative, CD10-positive neoplastic small B-cells with monotypic plasma cells, and a variable number of reactive T-cells infiltrating the dermis, often forming follicles with reactive germinal centers. Clonal immunoglobulin rearrangement may be present, thus determining the subtype as class-switched versus non-class-switched heavy-chain immunophenotype. There must be no evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis and other cutaneous lymphomas must be excluded.
