Abstract
Skin involvement in non-Hodgkin lymphoma is usually specific and may p recede systemic manifestations of the disease by months or even years. We report the case of a man with an inguinal plaque lesion of 1 year' s evolution, diagnosed as polymorphous lymphoplasmocytoid lymphoma (im munocytoma). The evaluation of spread only revealed mesenteric lipodys trophy, whose association with lymphoid processes is more common than would be expected.
