He presented associated cardiopathy, nephropathy and endocrinopathy. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations confirmed the diagnosis of cutaneous diffuse B cell lymphoma. CD 20, CD 79a and Ki-67 were positive. Chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, adriamycin and vincristine promoted partial remission
