Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a common aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, accounting for nearly 30-40% of all cases. This condition can affect the skin both primarily and secondarily. Herein we report a clinical and dermoscopic case of skin metastasis of DLBCL in a patient with Klinefelter syndrome.
