Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a treatment based on the accumulation of a photosensitizer in the target cells and their selective destruction by irradiation with visible light. In the past 10 years, several patients with cutaneous T cell lymphoma have been successfully treated. The use of PDT in cutaneous B cell lymphoma has not been reported to date. We report the successful PDT treatment of 3 patients with early primary cutaneous B cell lymphoma.

Background: Cutaneous melanocytic tumors with BAP-1 inactivation (BIMTs), linked to mutations in the BAP-1 gene, present diagnostic challenges due to their morphological similarities with other melanocytic lesions. The search for reliable diagnostic markers, including PRAME, holds potential to significantly improve the accuracy of differential diagnoses.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 32 BIMTs from 25 patients, collected between 2018 and 2022, involved histologic examination and immunostaining for BAP-1 and PRAME.
