Primary cutaneous B cell lymphoma during methotrexate therapy for rheumatoid arthritis.

A G Fam1, B Perez-Ordonez, K Imrie.   

Abstract

A patient with rheumatoid arthritis developed a reversible, primary cutaneous, large B cell lymphoma during prolonged methotrexate (MTX) treatment. Regression of the skin lesions after discontinuation of the drug suggested a close relationship to MTX. Increased clinical awareness, discontinuation of MTX, and close observation are important in the initial management of this rare lymphoproliferative disorder.
