Skin can be primarily involved by a lymphoma or can be colonised by a systemic disease. Hence, two categories of lymphoma can be distinguished: the primary cutaneous lymphoma (PCL) and the systemic lymphoma that secondarily involves the skin, also known as secondary cutaneous lymphoma (SCL). The aim of the present review is to analyse the current knowledge of such neglected topic. SCL were then analysed from a clinical, histological and survival ground.
