We are reporting a case of a 27-year-old woman with a history of swelling in the left submandibular region. This swelling was associated with a mass, and this was pathologically confirmed to be an extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (MALT). The patient underwent surgical excision and postoperative adjuvant radiation therapy. The patient tolerated treatments well and remains free of disease. Here, we describe the case and management described in the current literature.

We are reporting a case of a 59-year-old woman, with a family history of breast cancer, who presented with extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (MALT) of the left breast. She received definitive radiation therapy and remains without evidence of disease. Here, we present a case and review the current literature to determine the optimal treatment of this rare presentation of MALT.

Pilomatrical carcinoma is a rare, locally aggressive malignancy of follicular matrix origin. It presents as a rapidly growing, flesh-colored, or blueish, exophytic nodule with tumor asymmetry and poor circumscription. Histological features of these tumors include dominant hyperchromatic basaloid cells with high mitotic rate and nuclear pleomorphism; along with anucleate matrical cells and central necrosis. Pilomatrical carcinomas demonstrate a high rate of recurrence and tendency to metastasize. The most described treatment is wide excision of the tumor with negative margins with or without adjuvant radiation therapy. We present the case of a 70-year-old female patient who presented to the office with a 3-year history of a growing, exophytic lesion on the right nasal ala. A biopsy of the lesion was obtained, and histologic examination was consistent with a diagnosis of pilomatrical carcinoma.
