Abstract
AMORIM, Gustavo Moreira et al. Cutaneous Plasmacytosis: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenge in a Patient with an Atypical Presentation. Rev Soc Port Dermatol Venereol [online]. 2021, vol.79, n.3, pp.60-63. Epub Sep 30, 2021. ISSN 2182-2395. https://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.79.3.1367.
Cutaneous plasmacytosis is a rare dermatosis that is classically characterized by the presence of multiple papules and reddish-brown nodules mainly in the trunk. It most commonly affects elderly Asians, with few reports in Caucasians and young patients. On histopatho-logy there is a polyclonal proliferation of mature plasm cells.
The objective of this report is to present a case of atypical manifestation of this rare disease, both due to clinical and epidemiological aspects.
