Abstract:
Primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL) is a rare form of B-cell lymphoma that primarily affects the skin. Chronic antigen stimulation has been implicated in its development, with cases associated with various triggers. We present a case of PCMZL following chronic inflammation caused by long-term hair dyeing. A 75-year-old woman with a history of repeated inflammation and itching after hair dyeing for 30 years presented with persistent red-to-violaceous patches and plaques on her scalp. Despite receiving topical corticosteroid treatment for 10 years, the lesions remained. Pathological examinations confirmed the diagnosis of PCMZL. The patient achieved complete remission after radiotherapy. This case underscores the potential link between chronic inflammation and the development of PCMZL.

Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...
