Core Tip

Core Tip: This case report describes the diagnostic complexities and management strategies for primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (PC-ALCL), emphasizing the difficulties posed by its necrosis and chronic inflammation presentation. This report underscores the necessity of distinguishing PC-ALCL from similar chronic inflammatory conditions by detailing a patient’s journey from initial misdiagnosis to the tailored multidisciplinary approach that follows. This case illustrates the critical role of precise diagnostic techniques in guiding effective treatment plans for dermatological malignancies through histopathological examinations and immunophenotyping.
