Angioplasmocellular hyperplasia is a rare clinical condition with blood vessel proliferation and a reactive plasma cell infiltrate. To the best of our knowledge fewer than 20 cases of cutaneous angioplasmocellular hyperplasia have been published in English literature. We report a case of a 65-year-old man who presented with a long standing asymptomatic flesh colored ulcerated nodule on the back. Histopathological examination revealed a dermal vascular proliferation with polyclonal plasma cell infiltration. A diagnosis of angioplasmocellular hyperplasia was established. This entity is rare and we would like to emphasize the importance of clinico-pathological correlation to differentiate it from various other conditions of cutaneous plasma cell infiltration.

Background: Angioplasmocellular hyperplasia is rarely reported.
Objective: The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze the clinicopathologic features of angioplasmocellular hyperplasia.
Methods: The records of 10 patients (mean age, 45 years; range, 17 to 71 years) with characteristic histologic features of angioplasmocellular hyperplasia were reviewed and the histopathologic findings, clinical features, and medical histories analyzed.

Primary cutaneous angioplasmocellular hyperplasia is a plasma-cellular infiltrate that has been reported only once previously in the literature, in a report of a case affecting two Latin American patients. In the present case, a systemically well 62-year-old Caucasian man presented with a nodule on the back of the neck. Histology showed a vascular proliferative process with an abundance of plasma cells in the stroma.

We report a plasma cell granuloma arising in the movable mucosa of the oral cavity of a 50-year-old man. Histologically, the lesion was characterized by a dense nodular infiltrate of mature plasma cells. Immunostaining for kappa and lambda light chains confirmed a polyclonal plasma cell population.
