Abstract

A 75-year-old man with a history of multiple cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) presented with a rapidly growing nonscaly nodule adjacent to a site of previous Mohs surgery. Microscopic examination yielded these findings. The correct diagnosis is:

  1. (a)

    Rosacea

  2. (b)

    Perineural lymphocytic infiltrates associated with a previous history of SCC

  3. (c)

    Cutaneous lupus erythematosus

  4. (d)

    Small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia associated with site of previous surgery and scarring
