Abstract:
Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma is a kind of cluster of differentiation 30+ primary cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorders with a relatively good prognosis in the absence of high-stage disease. Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma shows a higher frequency in males and commonly affects the head and neck. Palpebral involvement is very rare. We present a 42-year-old lady patient with primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma involving the eyelid which was initially misdiagnosed as stye. The patient underwent a total excision of the lesion and showed complete regression of the lesion after surgery without any other treatment. There was no evidence of local or systemic disease during follow-up after nine months.
