Abstract EN

We report a case of Epstein-Barr-virus-(EBV-) positive primary cutaneous plasmablastic lymphoma in a human-immunodeficiency-virus-(HIV-) negative, immunocompetent 62-year-old female patient.

We postulate that her lymphoma development is due to the longstanding use of pyrimethamine for essential thrombocythemia.

This has never been described in the literature.
