Past, present and future of cutaneous lymphomas

Primary cutaneous lymphomas represent a broad group of diseases with different clinical, histopathological, phenotypic, molecular, and prognostic features. All cutaneous lymphomas share the same tropism of neoplastic lymphocytes for the skin, but precise classification is paramount for proper management of the patients. Primary cutaneous lymphomas are classified according to the schemes proposed by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC)-Cutaneous Lymphomas Task Force together with the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2005, and the WHO classification of 2008 with the 2016 update.
