Abstract:
Cutaneous pseudolymphoma is an uncommon, benign lymphoproliferative disorder of the skin. Although this condition is most commonly idiopathic, its occurrence has been associated with cosmetic tattoos. We report a unique case of cutaneous pseudolymphoma that occured after accidental, traumatic inoculation of a red pigment in a healthy 33-year-old woman.
