Abstrakt: A case of cutaneous B‐cell lymphoma successfully treated by MACOP‐B therapy is described. The patient was a 43‐year‐old man with reddish tumors measuring 3 to 7 cm in diameter on the right cheek and the post‐auricles. Histopathologically, massive infiltrations of medium‐sized atypical lymphoid cells were found in the reticular dermis and subcutis. A clear zone beneath the epidermis was also detected. The atypical lymphoid cells were positive for CD19, CD20, CD22 and HLA‐DR but negative for CD3, CD4, CD5, CD10, CD43, CD45RO and CDw75. The patient was treated successfully with the MACOP‐B protocol from March of 1990 to May of 1990. Since April of 1990, he has been free of disease.
