Abstract

ABSTRACT. Background. Currently, lymphocytoma of the skin is not so rare, but it is still little known for doctors. According
to the modern concepts the skin lymphocytoma is considered as a benign process, which is based on the reactive
polyclonal lymphocytes proliferation, which arises in response to the action of various exogenous and endogenous factors.
Objective. To analyze the literature data about the skin lymphocytoma and to bring a clinical and morphological analysis of
the case from practice of this pathology. Methods. The authors studied the patient’s biopsy material. The microspecimens
were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, as well as with picrofuxin by the van Gieson and studied using microscope «Olympus
ВХ-41». Results. The authors noted that the analysis of clinical-anamnestic data and histological examination are important
for the diagnosis of skin lymphocytoma. In the case from practice cited by the authors the cause of the skin lymphocytoma
development was the constant antigenic stimulation of the immunogenic components that make up the paints that were
used to perform the tattoo. Conclusion. The authors hope that the observation from practice of skin lymphocytoma will be
interesting and useful not only for dermatologists and pathologists, but also for physicians of other specialties.
