Abstract:
Mantle cell lymphomas account for about 2 to 10% of non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphomas. Despite the cellular maturity of B-cell lymphomas, the disease is aggressive in the majority of cases and its course is unpredictable. The clinical presentation is variable, and multiple nodal and extranodal manifestations have been described. Cutaneous infiltration is an uncommon (2-6%) location of the disease. An extensive review of the literature was performed, and 24 case reports and five case series were found describing cutaneous locations. These data were thoroughly studied in order to present their clinical and laboratory characteristics in this review.

The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
