Abstract
The etiology of benign cutaneous lymphadenosis is described. This condition is a skin response to exogenous factors and is presented by accumulation of lymphocytes and other inflammatory cells in the focus of exposure; it is classified as B-cell cutaneous pseudolymphoma. The dermatosis develops in the majority of cases in response to skin trauma (tattoo, insect bites, microinjuries, acupuncture, silicone implants, ear rings, piercing) and infection agents. Lymphocytomas often develop in the presence of scabies, after vaccination, under conditions of Borrelia burgdorferi, varicella zoster, HIV, Leishmania donovani infection. A case with lymphocytoma unfolding in the presence of chronic sinusitis is presented.
